Chapter 1, Problem 7PP
One way to measure the amount of energy that is expended during exercise is to use metabolic equivalents (MET). Here are some METS for various activities:
Running 6 MPH: 10 METS
Basketball: 8 METS
Sleeping: 1 MET
The number of calories burned per minute may be estimated using the formula Calories/Minute

A local biologist needs a program to predict population growth. The inputs would be:
1. The initial number of organisms, as an int
2. The rate of growth (a real number greater than 1), as a float
3. The number of hours it takes to achieve this rate, as an int
4. A number of hours during which the population grows, as an int
For example, one might start with a population of 500 organisms, a growth rate of 2, and a growth period to achieve this rate of 6 hours. Assuming that none of the organisms die, this would imply that this population would double in size every 6 hours. Thus, after allowing 6 hours for growth, we would have 1000 organisms, and after 12 hours, we would have 2000 organisms.
Write a program that takes these inputs and displays a prediction of the total population.
An example of the program input and output is shown below:
Enter the initial number of organisms: 10
Enter the rate of growth (a real number › 1]: 2
Enter the number of hours to achieve the…

This is called your basal metabolic rate, or BMR.The formula for the calories needed for a woman to maintain her weight isBMR = 655 + (4.3 x weight in pounds) + (4.7 x height in inches) -(4.7 x age in years)The formula for the calories needed for a man to maintain his weight isBMR = 66 + (6.3 x weight in pounds) + (12.9 x height in inches) -(6.8 x age in years)A typical chocolate bar will contain around 230 calories. Write a program that allows the userto input his or her weight in pounds, height in inches, age in years, and the character M formale and F for female.

- Phyton The program that you create for this exercise will begin by reading the cost of a meal ordered at a restaurant from the user. Then your program will compute the tax and tip for the meal. Use your local tax rate when computing the amount of tax owing. Compute the tip as 18 percent of the meal amount (without the tax). The output from your program should include the tax amount, the tip amount, and the grand total for the meal including both the tax and the tip. Format the output so that all of the values are displayed using two decimal places.arrow_forwardInterest Rates Savings accounts state an interest rate and a compounding period. If theamount deposited is P, the stated interest rate is r, and interest is compounded m timesper year, then the balance in the account after one year is P⋅(1+rm)m. For instance, if$1000 is deposited at 3% interest compounded quarterly (that is, 4 times per year), thenthe balance after one year is1000⋅(1+.034)4=1000⋅1.00754=$1,030.34.Interest rates with different compounding periods cannot be compared directly.The concept of APY (annual percentage yield) must be used to make the comparison. TheAPY for a stated interest rate r compounded m times per year is defined byAPY=(1+rm)m−1.(The APY is the simple interest rate that yields the same amount of interest after oneyear as the compounded annual rate of interest.) Write a program to compare interestrates offered by two different banks and determine the most favorable interest rate. SeeFig. 4.24.arrow_forwardJust the algorithm in pseudo-code.arrow_forward
- Collatz Sequence: In 1937, Lothar Collatz proposed that no matter what number you begin with, the sequence eventually reaches 1. This is widely believed to be true but has never been formally proved. Write a program that inputs a number from the user, and then displays the Collatz Sequence starting from that number. Stop when you reach 1. If n is even, divide it by 2 to get n / 2. If n is odd, multiply it by 3 and add 1 to get 3n + 1. Repeat the process indefinitely. Find out and print the maximum number that you can get in these calculations.

The program should have the right answer set to 13, then prompt the user repeatedly to guess the number from 1 to 25. When the user guesses incorrectly, the game should give the user a hint about whether the correct answer is higher or lower than the guess. Once the user guesses correctly, the program should print a message showing the number of guesses that the user made.

During each summer, John and Jessica grow vegetables in their backyard and buy seeds and fertilizer from a local nursery. The nursery carries different types of vegetable fertilizers in various bag sizes. When buying a particular fertilizer, they want to know the price of the fertilizer per pound and the cost of fertilizing per square foot. The following program prompts the user to enter the size of the fertilizer bag, in pounds, the cost of the bag, and the area, in square feet, that can be covered by the bag. The program should output the desired result. However, the program contains logic errors. Find and correct the logic errors so that the program works properly. // Logic errors. #include #include using namespace std; int main() { double costs double area; double bagsize; cout > bagsize; cout > cost; cout > area; cout << endl; cout << "The cost of the fertilizer per pound is: $" << bagsize / cost << endl; cout << "The cost of fertilizing per square foot is: $" << area / cost << endl; return 0; }arrow_forward
