Answer:

⇒ The constant value that has been given = $45 per day

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost y to rent a car is given to be $45 per day

Also, The cost includes 22 percent of total miles driven

Now, Total miles driven is a variable as the miles to be driven is not fixed

So, as a result cost per mile is also not a constant

But, The cost to rent per day is fixed and that is given to be $45 per day.

So, in any conditions this is going to be fixed

⇒ The constant value that has been given = $45 per day

A person who is 6ft tall walks away from a streetlight. When the person is 15 feet away from the light, the tip of his shadow is

Citrus2011 [14]

We essentially have a ratio here:
$\frac{shadow}{actual}$

Since we know the ratio is going to stay constant at $\frac{5}{6}$ , we can use this to find the height of the lamp along with the information that the total distance from the lamp to the tip of his shadow is 20:
$\frac{5}{6}=\frac{20}{h}$
$5h=120$
$h=24$
