- Hat size weight in pounds divided by height in inches and all that multiplied by 2.9.
- Jacket size (chest in inches) height times weight divided by 288 and then adjusted by adding one-eighth of an inch for each 10 years over age 30. (Note that the adjustment only takes place after a full 10 years. So, there is no adjustment for ages 30 through 39, but one-eighth of an inch is added for age 40.)
- Waist in inches = weight divided by 5.7 and then adjusted by adding one-tenth of an inch for each 2 years over age 28. (Note that the adjustment only takes place after a full 2 years. So, there is no adjustment for age 29, but one-tenth of an inch is added for age 30.)
Use functions for each calculation. Your program should allow the user to repeat this calculation as often as he or she wishes.

Airline companies apply baggage restrictions for their passengers. An
airline company has decided to apply a 10kg limitation for
passengers' hand luggage and 20kg for their normal baggage. When
passengers arrive, they enter their hand and normal luggage weight
from the keyboard. If passengers exceed their normal baggage
allowance of 10 dollars per gram, they pay 12 dollars per kg.
Accordingly, write the program that calculates the baggage price of
the airline they will go to according to the baggage values entered by
the arriving passenger and keeps this from closing the program for
each passenger. Note: If hand and normal baggage allowances are
stretched below the maximum value, the payment amount will be
considered not negative. An example printout is given on the right.

A parking garage charges a $2.00 minimum fee to park for up to three hours. The garage charges an additional $0.50 per hour for each hour or part thereof in excess of three hours. The maximum charge for any given 24-hour period is $10.00. Assume that no car parks for longer than 24 hours at a time. Write a program that calculates and prints the parking charges for each of three customers who parked their cars in this garage yesterday. You should enter the hours parked for each customer. Your program should print the results in a neat tabular format and should calculate and print the total of yesterday’s receipts. The program should use the function calculateCharges to determine the charge for each customer. Your outputs should appear in the following format Sample output Enter the hours parked for 3 cars: 1.5 4.0 24.0 Car Hours Charge 1 1.5 2.00 2 4.0 2.50 3 24.0 10.00 TOTAL 29.5 14.50

- Body Mass Index (BMI) is a measure of health on weight. It can be calculated by taking your weight in kilograms and dividing by the square of your height in meters. Write a program which prompts the user to enter the weight in kgs (integer value) and height in feet and inches (both integers) and then calculates the BMI of the person. Your program first need to convert inches to meters (i.e. inches * 0.0254) and then use the following formula to calculate BMI: weight kilogram / (height_meter)^2 Your program displays the BMI value in two decimal places and the corresponding status as shown in the examples below. Note that one inch is 0.0254 meters and 1 foot is 12 inches. For example: Input Result 62 5 10 89 6 0 45 BMI BMI < 18.5 18.5 s BMI < 25.0 25.0 ≤ BMI < 30.0 30.0 ≤ BMI 7 82 5 Interpretation Underweight Normal Overweight Obese 2 Enter weight (kg): Enter height (feet): Enter height (inches): BMI is 19.61, Normal Enter weight (kg): Enter height (feet): Enter height (inches): BMI is…arrow_forwardWrite a program that asks the user for the number of adult and the number of child movie tickets they are purchasing.

- ] In a triangle, the sum of the lengths of any two sides is greater than the lengthof the other third side. Write a program triangle.cc that prompts a user to enterthe lengths of three sides, checks if they form a triangle, and outputs if it is an isosceles,equilateral, scalene, or right triangle. Also, your program should output the perimeter andthe area of the triangle. In a right triangle, the square of the length of one side is equalto the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides. An isosceles triangle hastwo sides of equal length. An equilateral triangle has all three sides with the same length.A scalene triangle has no equal sides. Your program should define and use the followingfunctions:(a) isTriangle - takes the 3 sides of a triangle and returns true if they form a triangle,false otherwise.(b) isIsosceles - takes the 3 sides of a triangle and returns true if they form anisosceles triangle, false otherwise.(c) isEquilateral - takes the 3 sides of a triangle and…arrow_forwardWrite a program that computes the molecular weight of a carbohydrate (ingrams per mole) based on the number of hydrogen, carbon, and oxygenatoms in the molecule. The program should prompt the user to enter thenumber of hydrogen atoms, the number of carbon atoms, and the numberof oxygen atoms. The program then prints the total combined molecularweight of all the atoms based on these individual atom weights:Atom Weight(grams I mole)H 1.00794c 12.01070 15.9994For example, the molecular weight of water (H20) is: 2(1.00794) +15.9994 = 18.01528.arrow_forwardf. A laborant in a laboratory does a number of antigen tests in one day. Write a program that simulates the number of antigen tests done in a day in a laboratory, displays the number of positives and negatives, and calculates the % of positives in one day. Your program needs to first generate a random number that will show the number of tests done in a day. One laboratory in a day cannot do more than 100 tests and less than 1 (they do at least one). Then for each of the tests, your program needs to generate a random number to show whether they are positive or negative. In order to write this program, you need to have the following three functions used by the main function: test result (void): This function generates a test result. It should randomly return either one or zero. 1 means positive test result and 0 means negative test result. float positive percentage (int,int) : This function takes the total number of positives and the total number of tests and returns the % of positives.…arrow_forward
- Modify the above program to compute the side area, total area, and volume of a cylinder and the area and volume of a sphere, depending on the choice that the user makes. Your program should ask users to enter 1 to choose cylinder or 2 for sphere, and display an "invalid choice error" for other values. For a cylinder, we want to compute: Side area: (2*PI*r) * h Total Area: 2*(PI*r2) + Side area Volume: (PI*r2)*h For a sphere, we want to compute: Surface area: 4*PI*r2 Volume: (4.0/3.0)*PI*r3.

A government research lab has concluded that an artificial sweetener commonly used in diet soda pop causes death in laboratory mice. A friend of yours is desperate to lose weight but cannot give up soda pop. Your friend wants to know how much diet soda pop it is pos- sible to drink without dying as a result. Write a program to supply the answer. The input to the program is the amount of artificial sweetener needed to kill a mouse, the weight of the mouse, and the desired weight of the dieter. Assume that dietsoda contains 1/10th of 1% artificial sweetener. Use a named constant for this fraction. You may want to express the percent as the double value 0.001.arrow_forward
- A half-life is the amount of time it takes for a substance or entity to fall to half its original value. Caffeine has a half-life of about 6 hours in humans. Given caffeine amount (in mg) as input, output the caffeine level after 6, 12, and 24 hours. Output each floating-point value with two digits after the decimal point, which can be achieved as follows: System.out.printf("After 6 hours: %.2f mg\n", yourValue); Ex: If the input is: 100 the output is: After 6 hours: 50.00 mg After 12 hours: 25.00 mg After 24 hours: 6.25 mg Note: A cup of coffee has about 100 mg. A soda has about 40 mg. An "energy" drink (a misnomer) has between 100 mg and 200 mg. 1 import java.util.Scanner; 3 public class LabProgram { 06∞VOSAWNA 2 4 5 7 8 9 10 } PER 11 } 12 public static void main(String[] args) { Scanner scnr = new Scanner(System.in); double caffeineMg; // "double" supports floating-point Like 75.5, versus int for integers Like 75.

When the program begins, a random number in the range of 1 through 3 is generated. If the number is 1, then the computer has chosen rock. If the number is 2, then the computer has chosen paper. If the number is 3, then the computer has chosen scissors. (Don't display the computer's choice yet.) 2. The user enters his or her choice of "rock", "paper", or "scissors" at the keyboard.
