Suppose x, y, z, and w are int variables. What value is assigned to each of these variables after the last statement executes? x = 7; y = 2 * x - 3;z = x + y - 3;
x = z / y;y = z - x;w = x + y + 2 * z;w--;y = 2 * w + z - x;
What will be displayed by the following program? my_value = 99 my_value = 0 print(my_value)
The following variables have been initialized for you:
int a;
float f;
double d;
You have to cast the variable into different data types as follows:
Cast a as float to a variable x.
Cast f as an integer to a variable y.
Cast d as float to a variable z.
Hint: You have to initialize the variables x,y and z of proper data types

The first two questions was for 1 and 2 USE TO ANSWER THIS QUESTION 3 Question 1 A tutor charges for services based on the number of hours worked in a month. The next four questions are for one program that calculates the cost for a tutor based on the number of hours worked. Write a statement to ask the user to enter the number of hours worked and store it in a variable named hours as an float. Answer: float hours = sc.nextFloat(); Question 2 This is a continuation from the previous question. Now that the hours have been entered, write a loop that will run as long as the user enters bad hours data (0 or negative hours). If the user entered bad hours data, it asks them again with the message Not a valid amount of hours. Enter the hours again: Answer: while(true) { float hours = sc.nextFloat(); if(hours <= 0) System.out.println("Not a valid amount of hours. Enter the hours again: "); else break; }arrow_forward
