Chapter 6, Problem 1AW
l. Consider the following class declaration:
public class Circle
{
private double radius;
public Circle(double r)
{
radius = r;
{
public double getArea()
{
return Math.PI * radius * radius;
}
public double getRadius()
{
return radius;
}
}
- a. Write a toString method for this class. The method should return a string containing the radius and area of the circle.
- b. Write an equals method for this class. The method should accept a Circle object as an argument. It should return true if the argument object contains the same data as the calling object, or false otherwise.
- c. Write a greaterThan method for this class. The method should accept a Circle object as an argument. It should return true if the argument object has an area that is greater than the area of the calling object, or false otherwise.

Create the a Person class with the following:
Class Variables:String firstname String lastname int birthmonth int birthday int birthyear String ssn (All variables above should be private)
Constructor The main constructor should take in all values and assign them to their respective private class variables
MethodsCreate a public getters and setters for firstname and lastname and SSN getFirstname getLastname setFirstname setLastname
Create a public getter method called getBirthdate, which will return a String composed of their birthday in month/day/year format. For example, if birthmonth=3, birthday=22, birthyear=2000, it should return the String "3/22/2000"
Create a public method called verifySSN that takes in a String parameter and returns a boolean. It will check the parameter against the person's SSN and return true or false based on whether they match.
Consider the following class:
Use C++ please.
Code:
class Vehicle{
private:
int horsepower;
public:
string nickname;
bool fasterThanSound;;
//your method here
//};
//your main code here
int main() {}
1.)Define a method for this class speedUp() that will increase the horsepower of the vehicle by 100.
2.)Next, in main():
Declare a Vehicle object and call the speedUp() method on the object.

For example: 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, and so on… For this, you will implement a class that takes a positive integer (n) and returns the number in the nth position in the sequence. Examples When n is 1, the returned value will be 0. When n is 4, the returned value will be 2. When n is 9, the returned value will be 21. come up with the formula and base cases Implementation Create a class Fibonacci with a public static method getValue. Create a Main class to test and run your Fibonacci class.arrow_forward
