Chapter 2, Problem 6PP

(This is a better version of an exercise from Chapter 1.) 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 possible 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 diet soda 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.

] 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…
An oil slick occurs when an underwater refinery pipe ruptures, pumping oil into the water. The spilled oil sits on top of the water and causes a natural disaster. For simplicity, suppose that the oil sits on top of the water in the form of a circle. Write a program that prompts the user to enter the rate at which the ruptured pipe pumps oil (in gallons) per minute, the thickness of the oil on top of the water, and the number of days for which the area is covered by the spilled oil. The program outputs the spilled area (in kilometer) and the volume of oil (in gallons) on top of the water after each day.
Write a program using inputs age (years), weight (pounds), heart rate (beats per minute), and time (minutes), respectively. Output calories burned for women and men.
