Max Function

Statistical function is of many categories. One of them is a MAX function. The MAX function returns the largest value from the list of arguments passed to it. MAX function always ignores the empty cells when performing the calculation.

Power Function

A power function is a type of single-term function. Its definition states that it is a variable containing a base value raised to a constant value acting as an exponent. This variable may also have a coefficient. For instance, the area of a circle can be…

Chapter 7, Problem 6PC

Driver’s License Exam

The local Driver’s License Office has asked you to write a program that grades the written portion of the driver’s license exam. The exam has 20 multiple choice questions. Here are the correct answers:

1. B
2. D
3. A
4. A
5. C
6. A
7. B
8. A
9. C
10. D
11. B
12. C
13. D
14. A
15. D
16. C
17. C
18. B
19. D
20. A

A student must correctly answer 15 of the 20 questions to pass the exam.

Write a class named DriverExam that holds the correct answers to the exam in an array field. The class should also have an array field that holds the student’s answers. The class should have the following methods:

passed. Returns true if the student passed the exam, or false if the student failed
totalCorrect. Returns the total number of correctly answered questions
totalIncorrect. Returns the total number of incorrectly answered questions
questionsMissed. An int array containing the question numbers of the questions that the student missed

Demonstrate the class in a complete program that asks the user to enter a student’s answers, and then displays the results returned from the DriverExam class’s methods.

Input Validation: Only accept the letters A, B, C, or D as answers.

11. Go to the Webinars worksheet. DeShawn wants to determine the number of webinars the company can hold on Tuesdays and Thursdays to make the highest weekly profit without interfering with consultations, which are also scheduled for Tuesdays and Thursdays and use the same resources. Use Solver to find this information as follows: a. Use Total weekly profit as the objective cell in the Solver model, with the goal of determining the maximum value for that cell. b. Use the number of Tuesday and Thursday sessions for the five programs as the changing variable cells. c. Determine and enter the constraints based on the information provided in Table 3. d. Use Simplex LP as the solving method to find a global optimal solution. e. Save the Solver model below the Maximum weekly profit model label. f. Solve the model, keeping the Solver solution. Table 3: Solver Constraints Constraint Cell or Range Each webinar is scheduled at least once on Tuesday and once on Thursday B4:F5 Each Tuesday and…

I want to ask someone who has experiences in writing physics based simulation software. For context I am building a game engine, and want to implement physics simulation. There are a few approaches that I managed to find, but would like to know what are other approaches to doing physics simulation entry points from scenes, would you be able to visually draw me a few approaches (like 3 approaces)? When I say entry point to the actual physics simulation. An example of this is when the user presses the play button in the editor, it starts and initiates the physics system. Applying all of the global physics settings parameters that gets applied to that scene. Here is the use-case, I am looking for. If you have two scenes, and select scene 1. You press the play button. The physics simulation starts. When that physics simulation starts, you are also having to update the physics through some physics dedicated delta time because physics needs to happen faster update frequency. To elaborate,…
