To find the number of ways a customer can buy a cake and a pastry, we multiply the number of options for each category.

Given that there are 3 types of cakes and 4 types of pastries available, the customer has 3 options for selecting a cake and 4 options for selecting a pastry.

3(\text { options for cakes }) * 4(\text { options for pastries })=12 \text { ways }

Therefore, the number of ways a customer can buy a cake and a pastry is:

Hence, there are 12 possible combinations for buying a cake and a pastry at the bakery.
