A deli offers its cheese sandwich with various combinations of mayonnaise, lettuce, tomatoes, pickles, and sprouts. 5 types of cheese are available. How many different cheese sandwiches are possible?
-------------------------
Assuming only one cheese can be selected,
# of possible cheeses = 5
---
Assuming each of the add-ons can be chosen or not = 2^5
----
Total # of sandwiches: 5*32 = 160
