Summary
During each summer, John and Jessica grow vegetables in their backyard and buy seeds and fertilizer from a local nursery. The nursery carries different types of vegetable fertilizers in various bag sizes.
When buying a particular fertilizer, they want to know the price of the fertilizer per pound and the cost of fertilizing per square foot.
Instructions
The following program prompts the user to enter the size of the fertilizer bag, in pounds, the cost of the bag, and the area, in square feet, that can be covered by the bag.
The program should output the desired result. However, the program contains logic errors. Find and correct the logic errors so that the program works properly.
//Logic errors.#include <iostream>#include <iomanip> using namespace std; int main(){ double cost; double area; double bagSize; cout << fixed << showpoint << setprecision(2); cout << "Enter the amount of fertilizer, in pounds, " <<…

(Science: calculating energy) Write a program that calculates the energy needed to heat water from an initial temperature to a final temperature. Your program should prompt the user to enter the amount of water in kilograms and the initial and final temperatures of the water. The formula to compute the energy is Q = M * (finalTemperature – initialTemperature) * 4184 where M is the weight of water in kilograms, temperatures are in degrees Celsius, and energy Q is measured in joules.

- (Calculating Credit Limits) Collecting money becomes increasingly difficult during periods of recession, so companies may tighten their credit limits to prevent their accounts receivable(money owed to them) from becoming too large. In response to a prolonged recession, one companyhas cut its customers’ credit limits in half. Thus, if a particular customer had a credit limit of $2000,it’s now $1000. If a customer had a credit limit of $5000, it’s now $2500. Write a program thatanalyzes the credit status of three customers of this company. For each customer you’re given:a) The customer’s account number.b) The customer’s credit limit before the recession.c) The customer’s current balance (i.e., the amount the customer owes the company).Your program should calculate and print the new credit limit for each customer and shoulddetermine (and print) which customers have current balances that exceed their new credit limits.arrow_forwardC++ Ingredient Adjuster A cookie recipe calls for the following ingredients: 5 cups of sugar 1 cup of butter 75 cups of flour The recipe produces 48 cookies with this amount of ingredients.
