Why do new cars costing $20,000 rent for $40 a day, while tuxedos costing only $500 rent for around $90?

You use cars for much longer than you use a tuxedo. A tuxedo is once-off, whereas cars you use for days and days and days... After a while, the $20 you pay per day is going to add up!

The question is kind of confusing. if it's asking how many variations of answers can you give. then do 4^5 for your answer.this would be something like the first question could be a and the 2nd c or first b next c etc. if you can, ask the teacher for a better confirmation of what it's asking. if i'm assuming correctly what it's asking, it's 625 different variations.
