The question " How was the Constitution influenced by the Mayflower Compact?" has a fairly simple answer. It is because the Constitution as is the Mayflower Compact were formed on the same bases. The bases of equality and the fact that everyone was created equal. It also indirectly states back to the Constitution that we all have unalienable rights. "Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit Of Happiness."
The Mayflower Compact was NOT a constitution. It was a social agreement. The answer is the Articles of Confederation.
The Mayflower Compact was the first and true forerunner to the written constitution in America. It was also the forerunner to the articles of confederation. the declaration of indepence and the articles of confederation
Several documents were important to the writing of the US Constitution. For example, the Magna Carta, The Articles of Confederation, the Flushing Remonstrance of 1657, The Spirit of the Laws by Montesquieu, John Locke's Two Treatises of Government and Edward Coke's Institutes of the Laws of England.

The first federal governemnt for the colonies was enacted from the Articles of Confederation, but they were superceded by the Constitution whichwas written in 1787 and ratified in 1788 (all states had ratified the constitution by 1790 with Delaware being the last to approve it)
