4.13(Gas Mileage) Drivers are concerned with the mileage obtained by their automobiles. Onedriver has kept track of several trips by recording miles driven and gallons used for each trip. Develop a C++ program that uses a while statement to input the miles driven and gallons used for each trip. The program should calculate and display the miles per gallon obtained for each trip and print the combined miles per gallon obtained for all tankfuls up to this point.
Enter wiles driven (-1 to quit): 287 |
Enter gallons used: 13
MPG this trip: 22.076923
Total MPC: 22.076923
Enter wiles driven (-1 to quit): 200
Enter gallons used: 10
MPC this trip: 20.000000
Total MPC:21.173913
Enter the miles driven (-1 to quit): 120
Enter gallons used: 5
MPC this trip: 24.000000
Total MPC: 21.678571
Enter the miles used (-1 to quit): -1
4.14 (Credit Limit?) Develop a C++ program that will determine whether a department-store customer has exceeded the credit limit on a charge account. For each customer, the following facts are available:
- Account number (an integer)
- Balance at the beginning of the month
- Total of all items charged by this customer this month
- Total of all credits applied to this customer's account this month
- Allowed credit limit
The program should use a whilestatement to input each of these facts, calculate the new balance (= beginning balance + charges - credits) and determine whether the new balance exceeds the customer’s credit limit. For those customers whose credit limit is exceeded, the program should display the customer’s account number, credit limit, new balance and the message “Credit Limit Exceeded.”
Enter account number (or -1 to quit): 100 Enter beginning balance: 5394.78 Enter total charges: 1000.00 Enter total credits: 500.00 Enter credit limit: 5500.00 New balance is 5894.78 Account: 100 Credit limit: 5500.00 Balance: 5894.78 Credit Limit Exceeded. |
Enter Account Number (or -1 to quit): 200
Enter beginning balance: 1000.00
Enter total charges: 123.45
Enter total credits: 321.00
Enter credit limit: 1500.00
New balance is 802.45
Enter Account Number (or -1 to quit): -1
4.15 (Sales-Commission Calculator) A large company pays its salespeople on a commission basis. The salespeople each receive $200 per week plus 9% of their gross sales for that week. For example, a salesperson who sells $5000 worth of chemicals in a week receives $200 plus 9% of $5000, or a total of $650. Develop a C++ program that uses a while statement to input each salesperson’s gross sales for last week and calculates and displays that salesperson’s earnings. Process one salesperson’s figures at a time.
Enter sales in dollars (-1 to end): 5000.00 |
Salary is: $650.00
Enter sales in dollars (-1 to end): 6000.00
Salary is: $740.00
Enter sales in dollars (-1 to end): 7000.00
Salary is: $830.00
Enter sales in dollars (-1 to end): -1
4.16(Salary Calculator) Develop a C++ program that uses a while statement to determine the gross pay for each of several employees. The company pays “straight time” for the first 40 hours worked by each employee and pays “time-and-a-half’ for all hours worked in excess of 40 hours. You are given a list of the employees of the company, the number of hours each employee worked last week and the hourly rate of each employee. Your program should input this information for each employee and should determine and display the employee’s gross pay.
Enter hours worked (- 1 to end): 39 Enter hourly rate of the employee ($00.00): 10.00 Salary is $390.00 |
Enter hours worked (-1 to end): 40
Enter hourly rate of the employee ($00.00): 10.00
Salary is $400.00
Enter hours worked (-1 to end): 41
Enter hourly rale of the employee ($00.00): 10.00
Salary is $415.00
Enter hours worked (-1 to end): -1

- (Conversion) a. Write a C++ program to convert meters to feet. The program should request the starting meter value, the number of conversions to be made, and the increment between metric values. The display should have appropriate headings and list the meters and the corresponding feet value. If the number of iterations is greater than 10, have your program substitute a default increment of 10. Use the relationship that 1 meter = 3.281 feet. b. Run the program written in Exercise 6a on a computer. Verify that your program begins at the correct starting meter value and contains the exact number of conversions specified in your input data. c. Modify the program written in Exercise 6a to request the starting meter value, the ending meter value, and the increment. Instead of the condition checking for a fixed count, the condition checks for the ending meter value. If the number of iterations is greater than 20, have your program substitute a default increment of (ending value - starting value) / 19.arrow_forward15. Write a program to implement and test the algorithm that you designed for Exercise 15 of Chapter 1. (You may assume that the value of . In your program, declare a named constant PI to store this value.)arrow_forward25. Repeat Programming Exercise 24, but the wire is to be bent in the form of a circle. In this case, the user specifies the length of the wire and the program outputs the radius and area of the circle. (You may assume that . Also declare it as a named constant.)arrow_forward
- (Numerical analysis) a. The following is an approximate conversion formula for converting Fahrenheit to Celsius temperatures: Celsius=(Fahrenheit30)/2 Using this formula, and starting with a Fahrenheit temperature of 0 degrees, write a C++ program that determines when the approximate equivalent Celsius temperature differs from the exact equivalent value by more than 4 degrees. (Hint: Use a while loop that terminates when the difference between approximate and exact Celsius equivalents exceeds 4 degrees.) b. Using the approximate Celsius conversion formula given in Exercise 8a, write a C++ program that produces a table of Fahrenheit temperatures, exact Celsius equivalent temperatures, approximate Celsius equivalent temperatures, and the difference between the exact and approximate equivalent Celsius values. The table should begin at 0 degrees Fahrenheit, use 2-degree Fahrenheit increments, and terminate when the difference between exact and approximate values is more than 4 degrees.arrow_forward1. Use C PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE ONLY 2. Use RECURSION type of program 3. Copy and paste your code (no need screenshot) 4. Screenshot the output 5. It should be USER-DEPENDENT 4. The Fibonacci series: 0, 1, 1, 2,3,5,8,13,21... begins with terms 0 and 1 and has the property that each succeeding term is the sum of the two previous terms. Write a program containing a recursive function that computes and displays the nth Fibonacci number, given the value for n.arrow_forwardProblem B Musical Key ConversionThe chromatic scale is a 12-note scale in music in which all notes are evenly spaced: that is, the ratio of the frequency between any two consecutive notes is constant. The notes are typically labeled in the following sequence: A, A#, B, C, C#, D, D#, E, F, F#, G, G# After G#, the labels loop back and start over with A (one octave higher). To convert between musical keys, you can shift all notes in a piece of music a constant number of steps along the scale above. For example, the sequence of notes E, E, F, G, G, F, E, D, C, C, D, E, E, D, D can be converted to another musical key by shifting everything up three steps: E, E, F, G, G, F, E, D, C, C, D, E, E, D, D G, G, G#, A#, A#, G#, G, F, D#, D#, F, G, G, F, F Notice that G was converted to A#, since going three steps up required us to loop off of the top of the scale back to the bottom: G -> G# -> A -> A#. Technically we should note that this would be A# of the next octave up, but we’ll…arrow_forward
