- Fat Percentage Calculator One gram of fat has 9 calories. If you know the number of fat grams in a particular food, you can use the following formula to calculate the number of calories that come from fat in that food: Calories from fat = Fat grams × 9 If you know the food’s total calories, you can use the following formula to calculate the percentage of calories from fat: Percentage of calories from fat = Calories from fat ÷ Total calories Create an application that allows the user to enter: • The total number of calories for a food item • The number of fat grams in that food item The application should calculate and display: • The number of calories from fat • The percentage of calories that come from fat Also, the application’s form should have a CheckBox that the user can check if he or she wants to know whether the food is considered low fat.

- Write a program that can calculate the future and present value of an investment given various parameters. When you calculate the future value of an investment, the more years you hold the investment and the higher the rate of return, the more valuable it is. For example, a $1000 investment at 7% return will give you $1070 (1000+ 0.07-1000) after one year and $1144.90 (1070+0.07-1007) after two years. However, because of inflation, that $1144.90 after two years is not worth the same as $1144.90 now. If the inflation rate is 2%, $1144.90 in two years is the equivalent of $1100.44 now-i.e- L02 More generally, the present value, p, of an investment is 1.02² 1144.90 f p= where is the inflation rate as a percentage. Typically, one would add to the investment with annual contributions. Let's say you start with a $1000 investment and add $100 every year. Therefore, after the first year, you will have $1177 - 7% return on $1100i.e. $1000 initial investment + the $100 year one contribution.…arrow_forwardRunning the program Your program should take 5 arguments: start annual years return inflation where start is the initial investment amount annual is the amount that is added to the investment every year years is the number of years that the investment is held return is the annual investment return expressed as a percentage inflation is the annual inflation rate expressed as a percentage So, to calculate the future and present value of $1000 investment after 10 years where you add $100 every year with a 7% return and 2% inflation, you give the following arguments and get this output: $ ./fv 1000 100 10 7 2 Future Value: $3445.51 Present Value: $2826.52 Writing the code Starter code is provided for you below int main(int arge, char **argv ) { int a, n double value, present, I, is value= atof (argv[1]); a = atoi (argv[2]); natoi (argv[3]); r = atof (argv[4])/100; i = atof(argv[5])/100; // TODO write your code here printf ("Future Value: $%.2f\n", value) printf("Present Value: $%.2f\n",…arrow_forward3.
