Mitch lives on the 20th floor of an apartment building. Every time he leaves, he rides a self-service elevator from the 20th floor to the street; but every time he returns, he rides the same self-service elevator only to the 15th floor, where he leaves the elevator and walks up the remaining five flights of stairs. What is happening? Why does he do that?

He does that because he is short and his hand can't reach the 20th floor button

Step-by-step explanation:

Mitch does that simply because he is short.

When he is leaving, he doesn't need to reach the 20th floor button because the button is way taller than the reach of his hands whereas when he is returning he has to reach the 20th floor button but his hand can only reach the 15th floor button. Thus, he gets to the 15th floor and walks up the remaining 5 flights.

answer: what do you mean

constant of proportionality = 3 and the equation is c = 3p.

step-by-step explanation:

c = kp   where c = amount of caffeine in mg., p = oz of pepsi and k is the constant of proportionality.

substituting the values given:

24 = 8k

k = 3.

the same value of k will be obtained if we substitute the other given values.
