Shipping Charges
The Fast Freight Shipping Company charges the following rates:
Weight of Package (in Kilograms) | Rate per 500 Miles Shipped |
2 kg or less | $1.10 |
Over 2 kg but not more than 6 kg | $2.20 |
Over 6 kg but not more than 10 kg | $3.70 |
Over 10 kg but not more than 20 kg | $4.80 |
Write a
Input Validation: Do not accept values of 0 or less for the weight of the package. Do not accept weights of more than 20 kg (this is the maximum weight the company will ship). Do not accept distances of less than 10 miles or more than 3,000 miles. These are the company's minimum and maximum shipping distances.

- Assuming there are no deposits other than the original investment, the balance in a saving account after one year may be calculated as Amount=Principal * (1+ Rate / T)T principal -balance in the saving account, Rate -the interest rate, T - number of times the interest is compounded during a year. Write a program that asks for : the principal, the interest rate, and the number of times the interest is compounded. It should display a report similar to Interest Rate: 4.25% Times Compounded: 12 Principal: $ 1000.00 Interest: $ 43.34 Amount in Savings: $ 1043.34arrow_forwardCoin Converter Lab Description Write a program that asks the user to enter an amount of money in the format of dollars and remaining cents. The program should calculate and print the minimum number of coins (quarters, dimes, nickels and pennies) that are equivalent to the given amount.Hint: In order to find the minimum number of coins, first find the maximum number of quarters that fit in the given amount of money, then find the maximum number of dimes that fit in the remaining amount, and so on. File Name coins.py Score There are five tests each worth 2 points For example, an execution should look like this:Please enter the amount of money to convert:# of dollars: 2# of cents: 37The coins are 9 quarters, 1 dimes, 0 nickels and 2 pennies python labsarrow_forwardCar sales commission problem - For each used car a salesperson sells, the commission paid is as follows: $20 plus 30% of the selling price in excess of the cost of the car. Typically, the minimum selling price of the car is the cost of the car plus $200 and the maximum selling price is the cost of the car and $2,000. Write a program that prompts the user to enter the salesperson’s fixed commission, the percentage of the commission, the purchasing cost of the car, the minimum and the maximum amount to be added to the purchasing cost to determine the minimum and the maximum selling price, and outputs minimum and maximum selling price of the car and the salesperson's commission range. As a suggestion, pay particular attention to the formulas would your being requested. I would recommend that you perform the calculations on paper or in Excel prior to programming the solution.

- circles) Write a program that prompts the user to enter the center coordinates and radii of two circles and determines whether the second circle is inside the first or overlaps with the first, as shown in Figure 4.11. (Hint: circle2 is inside circle1 if the distance between the two centers <= | r1 - r2| and circle2 overlaps circle1 if the distance between the two centers <= r1 + r2.arrow_forward(Financial application: calculate future investment value) Write a program**(PYTHON)** that reads in an investment amount, the annual interest rate, and the number of years, and displays the future investment value using the following formula: futureInvestmentValue = investmentAmount * (1 + monthlyInterestRate)^numberOfMonths For example, if you enter the amount 1000, an annual interest rate of 4.25%, and the number of years as 1, the future investment value is 1043.33. Here is a sample run: Enter investment amount: 1000 Enter annual interest rate: 4.25 Enter number of years: 1 Accumulated value is 1043.33arrow_forwardSales Prediction The East Coast sales division of a company generates 58 percent of total sales. Based on that percentage, write a program that will predict how much the East Coast division will generate if the company has $8.6 million in sales this year. Display your prediction on the screen. Miles per Gallon A car holds 15 gallons of gasoline and can travel 375 miles before refueling. Write a program that calculates the number of miles per gallon (MPG) the car gets. Display the result on the screen. c++ codearrow_forward
- Guess The Number Game: write a program that will ask the user to guess a secret numberrandomly generated by your program between 1-10. Player have 3 trials to guess the number.After each trial, you have to inform the user, either he/she has guessed it correctly or not, andthe remaining trials to guess the number. In each trial your program should generate a newrandom number. If user guess at least twice correctly, then shows the message, “you won by 2-1” and vice versa for losing.When game is over, ask the user to play again: If the user types "yes", the game start again.else stop the game.arrow_forward(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_forwardSalary Calculator Create a program that computes the salary based on an employee's hourly wage and hours worked. Note that employees may work for fractions of an hour, e.g. 1 and a half hours (1.5 hours). Use the following formulas: Less than or equal to 40 hours worked hourly wage * hours worked Over 40, but less than or equal to 65 hours worked (hourly wage * 40) + (hours worked - 40) * (hourly wage * 1.5) Over 65 hours worked (hourly wage * 40) + (hourly wage * 1.5) * 25 + (hours worked - 65) * hourly wage * 2 Also make sure that the hourly wage and hours worked are positive. Otherwise, display the error message: "Invalid input". Please see the sample outputs below to guide the design of your program. main.cc file #include <iomanip> #include <iostream> int main() { // TODO: accept user input to store the hourly wage and hours worked. // Then, include the header file at the top of this file so you can // call your function that computes a…arrow_forward
- Personal BestWrite a program that asks for the name of a pole vaulter and the dates and vaultheights (in meters) of the athlete’s three best vaults. It should then report, in order ofheight (best first), the date on which each vault was made and its height.Input Validation: Only accept values between 2.0 and 5.0 for the heights.arrow_forward(Parking fee) The short-term, 0-24 hours, parking fee, F, at an international airport is given by the following formula: where int(h + 1) is the integer value of h + 1. For example, int(3.2) = 3, int(4.8) = 4. Write a program that prompts the user to enter the number of hours a car is parked at the airport and outputs the parking fee.arrow_forwardProblem: Feed Nibble Monster Till Full Write a program that generates a number in [0, 500] at the beginning -- this corresponds to how hungry the monster is -- and keeps asking the user to feed the monster until that number falls to zero. Each time the user feeds the monster a nibble, hunger decreases by the decimal value of the character (i.e. if the user feeds 'A' hunger decreases by 65). But when the user feeds the monster some character that isn't a nibble, the hunger increases by the decimal value of the character (since puking depletes energy). Use while loop. Sample runs: Notice the loop exits after one iteration, because hunger was very low and one nibble made the monster full: Notice hunger increasing after non-nibble (pink highlight): Notice that the program just keeps going when the user feeds the monster only non-nibbles. Do you think the program will keep running forever if the user never gives the monster nibbles?arrow_forward
