Chapter 5.3, Problem 6E

(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.

(Apartment problem) A real estate office handles, say, 50 apartment units. When the rent is, say, $600 per month, all the units are occupied. However, for each, say, $40 increase in rent, one unit becomes vacant. Moreover, each occupied unit requires an average of $27 per month for maintenance. How many units should be rented to maximize the profit? Write a program in C++ that prompts the user to enter: The total number of units. The rent to occupy all the units. Amount to maintain a rented unit. The increase in rent that results in a vacant unit. The program then outputs: The number of units to be rented to maximize the profit The maximum profit Since your program handles currency, make sure to use a data type that can store decimals with a decimal precision of 2.
(c++) Write a program that takes user input describing a playing card with the following shorthand: A = Ace 2...10  card values J = Jack Q = Queen, etc. D = Diamonds S = Spades. etc. Ex. if the user enters QS then your program responds with Queen of Spades
(C++)Write a program that will allow a student to compute for his equivalent semestral grade. The program should ask the user should input his/her first name, last name, middle initial, and student number. After, inputting everything above, the output will clear the current screen and a new screen should open. A sample program that would clear a screen is included below for your reference. On the new screen, the user will then be greeted "Welcome, <firstname>! (i.e. Welcome, Louie!)" The program will then ask for the prelim grade, midterm grade and final grade of the student. The program should only accept grades 100 and below. After getting the three grades, the program should compute for the semestral grade. The computation of the semestral grade is as follows: 30%*PrelimGrade + 30%*midtermgrade + 40%finalgrade After inputting all the grades, the screen should clear again and will proceed to another screen. The new screen should output should output the following (this is…
