- math ITarrow_forward(Transportation) Road construction requires estimating the expected loads on a road’s pavement over its design life. A common approach for determining this information is to use ESAL values; one ESAL is the load a single 18,000-lb (80,000 N) single-axle truck applies to the road’s surface. The ESAL value for any single-axle vehicle can be approximated by this formula: ESAL=[W18,000]4 ESAL is the equivalent single-axle load. W is the vehicle’s weight (lbs). Using this formula, write, compile, and run a C++ program that determines ESAL values and use it to complete the following chart. The ESAL values should be output in a field width of 10, with six digits after the decimal point.arrow_forwardDuring problem solving, do you use primarily algorithms or heuristics?

- Help me correct this one, please.arrow_forwardYou must solve N problems with the numbers 1..N. The problems are listed in order of increasing complexity, with the ith problem having an estimated difficulty level of i. Each issue has also been given a grade of vi by you. Comparable vi values lead to similar types of issues. You will pick a portion of the issues and address them each day. You've made the decision that each issue you solve on that day should be more difficult than the one before it. It will also be less monotonous if the vi ratings of the subsequent problems you answer differ by at least K. What is the shortest amount of time that you can fix every issue?Input FormatThe first line contains the number of test cases T. T test cases follow.

The ingredients must be taken in railway cars from the top of a mountain and poured into Lake Geneva. The railway system goes steeply from the mountaintop down to the lake, with a T-shaped branch in the middle as shown below. Right now, each of the N ingredients is in its own railway car. Each railway car is assigned a positive integer from 1 to N. The ingredients must be poured into the lake in the order 1, 2, 3, . . . , N but the railway cars are lined up in some random order. The difficulty is that, because of the especially heavy gravity today, you can only move cars downhill to the lake, or sideways on the branch line. Is it still possible to pour the ingredients into the lake in the order 1, 2, 3, . . . , N ? For example, if the cars were in the order 2, 3, 1, 4, we can slide these into the lake in order as described…arrow_forwardproblem didnt even answer D and Earrow_forward
