I took my mac in because the track pad wasnt working. it is not fixable but I was wondering if I could use a mouse with my computer instead of the keyboard

I took my computer in to Apple because the track pad wasn't working. The computer is too old to fix, but I was wondering if I attached a mouse to the computer would I be able to use it. I have an iPad but if I could use my mac at all I would like to be able to. I am not techy so I thought I would reach out and ask. Thanks.

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 10.13

You can use an external mouse.
