Chapter 5, Problem 5.39PE

(Financial application: find the sales amount) You have just started a sales job in a department store. Your pay consists of a base salary and a commission. The base salary is $5,000. The scheme shown below is used to determine the commission rate.

Sales Amount Commission Rate
$0.01 − $5,000 8%
$5,000.01 − $10,000 10%
$10,000.01 and above 12%

Note this is a graduated rate. The rate for the first $5,000 is at 8%, the next $5,000 is at 1 0%, and the rest is at 12%. If the sales amount is 25,000, the commission is 5,000 * 8% + 5,000 * 10% + 15,000 * 12% = $2,700.

Your goal is to earn $30,000 a year. Write a program that finds out the minimum number of sales you have to generate in order to make $30,000.

Background: Game Rules The rules to the (dice) game of Pig:   You will need 2 dice.   To Play: a.  The players each take turns rolling two die. b.  A player scores the sum of the two dice thrown (unless the roll contains a 1): If a single number 1 is thrown on either die, the score for that whole turn is lost (referred to as “Pigged Out”). A 1 on both dice is scored as 25. c.  During a single turn, a player may roll the dice as many times as they desire. The score for a single turn is the sum of the individual scores for each dice roll. d.  The first player to reach the goal score wins unless a player scores higher subsequently in the same round. Therefore, everyone in the game must have the same number of turns. Execution and User Input This program is quite interactive with the user(s) and will take in the following information; please review the sample input / output sessions for details; we describe them again here emphasizing input. The program will prompt for the number of…
Matric Number: 2. Let x be the first three digits of your matric number, AND y be the last three digits of your matric number. If the first digit of y is 0, replace it with 2. Ехатple: If you matric number is 2013034, Thus, x = 201 and y = 234 a. Write the values of x and y based on your matric number. b. If a = x (mod 7) and b = (-1) + y (mod 7), find the integer(s) c with 10
Microwaves / Radio Waves If a scientist knows the wavelength of an electromagnetic wave she can determine what type of radiation it is. Write a program that asks for the wavelength in meters of an electromagnetic wave and then displays what that wave is according to the following chart. (For example, a wave with a wavelength of 1E-10 meters would be an X-ray.) 1x 10-11 1 x 10-8 4 x 10-7 7x 10-7 1x 10-3 1 x 10-2 Gamma Rays. X Rays Ultraviolet Visible Light Infrared
