Chapter 2, Problem 2.30MAD

(Body Mass Index Calculator) We introduced the body mass index (BMI) calculator in Exercise 1.9. The formulas for calculating BMI are

    B M I = w e i g h t   i n   P o u n d s × 703 h e i g h t   i n   i n c h e s × h e i g h t   i n   i n c h e s

Or

B M I = w e i g h t   i n  kilograms h e i g h t   i n  meters × h e i g h t   i n  meters

Create a BMI calculator application that reads the user’s weight in pounds and height in inches (or, if you prefer, the user’s weight in kilograms and height in meters), then calculates and displays the user’s body mass index. Also, the application should display the following information from the Department of Health and Human Services/National Institutes of Health so the user can evaluate his/her BMI:

    BMI VALUES
    Underweight: less than 18.5
    Normal:between 18.5 and 24.9
    Overweight: between 25 and 29.9
    Obese: 30 or greater

[Note: In this chapter, you learned to use the int type to represent whole numbers. The BMIcalculations when done with int values will both produce whole-number results. In Chapter 4 you’ll learn to use the double type to represent numbers with decimal points. When the BMI calculations are performed with doubles, they’ll each produce numbers with decimal points these are called “floating-point” numbers.]

(True or False) Seven different positive integers are randomly chosen between 1 and 2022 (including 1 and 2022).There must be a pair of these integers has a difference that is a multiple of 6.
(Geometry: great circle distance) The great circle distance is the distance between two points on the surface of a sphere. Let (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) be the geographi- cal latitude and longitude of two points. The great circle distance between the two points can be computed using the following formula: d = radius * arccos(sin(x1) * sin(x2) + cos(x1) * cos(x2) * cos(y1 - y2)) Write a program that prompts the user to enter the latitude and longitude of two points on the earth in degrees and displays its great circle distance. The average earth radius is 6,378.1 km. The latitude and longitude degrees in the formula are for north and west. Use negative to indicate south and east degrees.
Q1) Write a computer program that uses Newton's method to find the root of a given function, and apply this program to find the root of the following functions, using co as given. Stop the iteration when the error as estimated by n+1 - Enl is less than 10-6. Compare to your results for bisection. (a) f(x) = 1-2xe-/2, xo = 0; (b) f(x)=5-x-¹, x = ¹; (c) f(x)= x³ - 2x - 5, xo = 2; (d) f(x)=e-2, xo = 1; (e) f(x)=x-e, xo = 1; (f) f(x)=x-x-1, xo = 1; (g) f(x)=x²-sinx, xo =/; (h) f(x)= x³-2,0 = 1; (i) f(x) = x + tan x, zo = 3; (j) f(x)=2x-¹ In x, xo = 3.
