• A certain grade of steel is graded according to the following conditions:
(i) Hardness must be greater than 100
(ii) Carbon content must be less than 0.8
(iii) Tensile strength must be greater than 5500
The grades are as follows:
Grade is 10 if all three conditions are met
Grade is 9 if conditions (i) and (ii) are met
Grade is 8 if conditions (ii) and (iii) are met
Grade is 7 if conditions (i) and (iii) are met
Grade is 6 if only one condition is met
Grade is 5 if none of the conditions are met
Write a program, which will require the user to give values of hardness, carbon content, and
tensile strength of the steel under consideration, and output the grade of the steel.
Comment/Discussion on the obtained results and discrepancies (if any).

We all know about the recent flood in Sylhet. Every area of Sylhet can be expressed with a number. If there are n number of areas in Sylhet then they can be expressed as 1, 2, 3...n-1,n. Where the
area is located after the (1) area. Volume of each area of Sylhet is 1 meter. A few dams have been constructed in certain areas in Sylhet. Each dam is pre-planned to be built at a certain height so
that the flood water cannot completely inundate the city Flood water will enter through the 1, area. The height of the dam in the area is B, meter. If the water level in area i is greater than B
meter then the remaining water will flow in (i+1), area. Due to the good communication system of Sylhet, people can move from one area to another before any danger
Sylhet is the city of rain. Every area has some tall buildings built to deal with the flood problem. The building in the fen area has H, floors and each floor has a height of 1meter. Due to the weather
forecast people can know…
A detachment of n soldiers must cross a wide and deep river with no bridge in
sight. They notice two 12-year-old boys playing in a rowboat by the shore. The boat is so
tiny, however, that it can only hold two boys or one soldier. How can the soldiers get
across the river and leave the boys in joint possession of the boat? How many times need
the boat pass from shore to shore?

They have obtained a load of 600 board feet of birch froma neighbor and are planning to produce round kitchen tables and ladder-back chairs during the next 3 months. Each table will require 30 hours oflabor, each chair will require 18 hours, and between them they have a total of 480 hours of labor available. A table requires 40 board feet of woodto make, and a chair requires 15 board feet. A table earns the couple $575 in profit, and a chair earns $120 in profit. Most people who buy a tablealso want four chairs to go with it, so for every table that is produced, at least four chairs must also be made, although additional chairs can also besold separately. Formulate and solve an integer programming model to determine the number of tables and chairs the Jacobsons should make tomaximize profit. What is the maximized profit?arrow_forwardComputer Science An IT company has branches in 10 cities. In each of the cities, it employs 5 employees.
