Chapter 3, Problem 6E
We would like to assess a service charge for cashing a check. The service charge depends on the amount of the check. If the check amount is less than $10, we will charge $1. If the amount is greater than $10 but less than $100, we will charge 10 percent of the amount. If the amount is greater than $100, but less than $1,000, we will charge SS plus 5 percent of the amount. If the value is over $1,000, we will charge $40 plus 1 percent of the amount. Use a multibranch if-olsc statement in a fragment of code to compute the service charge.

When you use a mortgage to purchase a home, the lending institution effectively owns the home. You buy back part ownership in the home with each monthly payment. The part you have bought back is your equity in the home. If the mortgage amount is P dollars, the monthly interest rate is r as a decimal, and the term of the mortgage is t months, then your equity after k payments is
E(k) =
P((1 + r)k − 1)
(1 + r)t − 1
dollars.
In this exercise, assume that the mortgage amount is $200,000, the APR is 6%
so r = .06/12
and the term of the loan is 30 years (360 months).
(a)
Find a formula for the equity.
(b)
Make a graph of the equity over 360 months, the term of the loan.
(c)
Does the graph show that you have half-ownership in the home halfway through the term of the mortgage?
Halfway through the term of the mortgage corresponds to k1 = _______ payments. From the graph, we see that E(k1) is ________ half of the mortgage amount, so we _______ have half-ownership in the home…
Suppose you can buy chocolate bars from a vending machine for $1 each.Inside every chocolate bar is a coupon. You can redeem 7 coupons for 1chocolate bar from the machine.For example, if you have $20, you can initially buy 20 chocolate bars.This gives you 20 coupons. You can redeem 14 coupons for 2 additionalchocolate bars. These 2 chocolate bars have 2 more coupons, so you now have atotal of 8 coupons. This gives you enough to redeem for 1 final chocolate bar.Write a recursive function that would accept the amount of dollars andcoupons as its parameters and output the total number of chocolate bars thatcan be bought (including those redeemed via coupons).Write a test program in C++that would allow the user to enter amount of dollarsand then use the recursive function to compute the number of chocolate barsthe user can buy, and output the number to the screen.
The interest paid on a savings account is compounded daily. This means that if you start with startbal dollars in the bank, at the end of the first day you’ll have a balance ofstartbal * (1 + rate/365)dollars, where rate is the annual interest rate (0.10 if the annual rate is 10 percent). At the end of the second day, you’ll havestartbal * (1 + rate/365) * (1 + rate/365)dollars, and at the end of n days you’ll havestartbal * (1 + rate/365)ndollars. Write a program that processes a set of data records, each of which contains values for rate, startbal, and n and computes the final account balance.

- Suppose you save $100 each month in a savings account with annual interest rate 3.75%. Thus, the monthly interest rate is 0.0375/12 = 0.003125. After the first month, the value in the account becomes 100 * (1 + 0.003125) = 100.3125, after the second month, the value in the account becomes (100 + 100.3125) * (1 + 0.003125) = 200.938, after the third month, the value in the account becomes (100 + 200.938) * (1 + 0.003125) = 301.878 and so on. Write a Java program that prompts the user to enter a monthly saving amount and displays the account value after the sixth month. (You will use a loop to simplify the code and display the account value for any month.) Sample Output:Enter the monthly saving amount: 100After the first month, the account value is 100.3125After the second month, the account value is 200.9384765625After the third month, the account value is 301.8789093017578Note: The computation should be until 12 months.arrow_forwardSuppose you are a computer salesman and your income depend on the total sales and commissions earned for the computers that you sell. Commission rates vary depending on how many units you sold (see chart below). Your income equals to the total sales plus the commission where the commission equals to total sales times the commission rate. That is, commission = total sales * commission rate and income = total sales + commission. Total Sales Commission rate % Less than 200 sold 8% (totalsales < 200) Greater or equal to 200 sold 10% (totalsales >=200 & totalsales <400) Greater than to 400 sold 12% (if (totalsales >= 400) Use Multiway if, else if (use as many you need) and else correctly Review slides 3-CH-2 Slide 4 and 8 Write the code correctly as show in the chapter slides.

Now, the minute hand doesn't rotate by the angle 2π/3600 each second, but now it moves according to different angle x. You can assume that coordinates of the centre of the clock are (0, 0) and the length of the minute hand is l. One endpoint of the minute hand is always located at the clock centre; the other endpoint is initially located at the point (0, l). One second later, Harry observes that this endpoint is at distance d above the x-axis, i.e., the y-coordinate of this endpoint is equal to d. Harry is curious about where the minute hand will be (specifically, its y-coordinate) after t seconds. Because t can be very large, Harry can't wait for that moment. Please help him to write a python code that prints a single line containing the output.Input: 4 2 2Output4Harry has a big wall clock, that got hit while he was playing.

- Let's begin with a lesson in roulette. Roulette is a casino game that involves spinning a ball on a wheel that is marked with numbered squares that are red, black, or green. Half of the numbers 1–36 are colored red and half are black and the numbers 0 and 00 are green. Each number occurs only once on the wheel. We can make many different types of bets, but two of the most common are to bet on a single number (1–36) or to bet on a color (either red or black). These will be the two bets we will consider in this project. After all players place their bets on the table, the wheel is spun and the ball tossed onto the wheel. The pocket in which the ball lands on the wheel determines the winning number and color. The ball can land on only one color and number at a time. We begin by placing a bet on a number between 1 and 36. This bet pays 36 to 1 in most casinos, which means we will be paid $36 for each $1 we bet on the winning number. If we lose, we simply lose whatever amount of money we…arrow_forwardLet's begin with a lesson in roulette.

Start by asking the user for the price of the product and the amount paid. (We are expecting that the user will give a larger value for the amount paid.) Read in each of these values as a double. Report back to the user the number of each denomination of change due. You are not just telling the user the amount of money he gets back. Hint: Working with integers is much easier. The modulo operator is your friend for this assignment. Also, note that pennies can be tricky due to the poor real number to binary conversions. (Remember that 1.00 could actually be stored as 0.9999999999997.) Do not include five-dollar bills, ten-dollar bills, etc. Only show coins and one-dollar bill amounts. Be sure to test multiple values. There is a test case below. Your program should run the test case exactly as it appears below, and should work on any other case in general.

- We have n glasses which can hold a varying amount of liquid. We will say that glass1 is size q1 quarts and glass2 is size q2 quarts, etc. We now give you a size, say x quarts. You must give me a glass of exactly x quarts. You are allowed to fill any glass to exactly its size and to pour any liquid from one glass into another. When you pour, you either have to empty the glass you are pouring from or fill the glass you are pouring into. Can you do it?More concrete example: G1 has size 10 quarts. G2 has size 4 quarts. G3 has size 1 quart. You can get a 5 quart drink by filling G1, pouring 4 quarts from it into G2 and 1 quart of it into G1. After that, G1 has exactly 5 quarts. In the same problem, we could get 8 quarts by filling G2 twice and emptying it into G1 twice. Given This: Write an algorithm to do this and determine its complexity.arrow_forwardIn Python, Write a program that continuously asks for a non-negative score until the user enters -1. IF the user enters a valid score ask for the possible score for that assignment, we will not assume all scores will have the same maximum value. We will assume that no one will receive a score of 0 on any assignment IF anything it is actually turned in, meaning a score of 0 indicates that the score was not turned it. It’s still the score for the assignment, but this fact will be used later in the assignment. Once all of the scores have been entered display the following information: • Total number of scores entered. • Total points for the student. • Total number of possible points • Class percentage, with 2 decimal place. • Letter grade using the 90, 80, 70, 60 grading scale. • If we believe the student has dropped. We will assume this is true if ALL of the entered scores are 0 (indicating that nothing was turned it). • If all of the scores were turned in or if the student is missing at…arrow_forwardA company wants a program that will calculate the weekly paycheck for an employee based on how many hours they worked. For this company, an employee earns $20 an hour for the first 40 hours that they work. The employee earns overtime, $30 an hour, for each hour they work above 40 hours. Example: If an employee works 60 hours in a week, they would earn $20/hr for the first 40 hours. Then they would earn $30/hr for the 20 hours they worked overtime. Therefore, they earned: ($20/hr * 40hrs) + ($30/hr * 20 hrs) = $800 + $600 = $1400 total.arrow_forward
- Write a program that deals a number of cards (their numerical values) to a player's hand. To begin, the program asks the player for the values of the deck of cards. Then, the program deals the first two cards of the deck to a player's hand, and asks him if he wants another card. If he does not want a card, the program ends. If he wants a card, the program deals the next available card in the deck, adds it to the player's hand, and asks the player if he wants another card. The dealing process repeats as long as the user continues to accept cards, or until the cards in the deck run out. Card dealing involves copying the available card from the deck vector to another vector, which stores the player's hand, at the next available position. Assume that the deck of cards consists of only 10 cards with numerical values from 1 to 10, which the player will enter by keyboard before the program deals. The following functions must be implemented/used: enterDeckValues. - This…arrow_forwardWrite a program that plays a dice game called "21" It is a variation on BlackJack where one player plays against the computer trying to get 21 or as close to 21 without going over.
