Chapter 7, Problem 3E
Write a
- income—a double value that is the income for the family
- size—the number of people in the family
and the following methods:
- Family (income, size)—a constructor that sets the attributes
- isPoor(housingCost, foodcost)—a method that returns true if housingcoat + foodCost + size is greater than half the family income (foodCoat is the average food cost for an individual, while housingCost is for the family)
- toString—a method that returns a string containing the information about the family
The program should read an integer k from the keyboard and then create an array of size k whose base type is Family. It should then create k objects of type Family and put them in the array, reading the income and size for each family from the keyboard. After reading an average housing cost and average food cost from the keyboard, it should display the families that are poor.

IN C++
Implement a class Car with the following properties.
A car has a certain fuel efficiency (measured in miles/gallon or liters/km—pick one) and a certain amount of fuel in the gas tank.
The efficiency is specified in the constructor, and the initial fuel level is 0.
Provide another parameterized constructor which takes both efficiency and fuel as parameters.
Also supply methods
getGasInTank, returning the current amount of gasoline in the fuel tank.
getEfficiency() return the efficiency of car.
setGasInTank(double fuel), to add gasoline to the fuel tank.
setEfficiency(double efficiency)
Supply a method Drive () that simulates driving the car for a certain distance, reducing the amount of gasoline in the fuel tank according to its efficiency.
Sample usage:
Car myHybrid (50); // 50 miles per gallon
myHybrid.addGas(20); // Tank 20 gallons
myHybrid.Drive(100); // Drive 100 miles
double gasLeft = myHybrid.getGasInTank(); // Get gas remaining in tank

Write a Java program for a class named Baby. A Baby has a name of type String and an ageof type integer.Supply two constructors: one will be the default constructor, that just setsdefault values for the name and age; the second constructor will take twoparameters, a string to set the name and an integer to set the age. Also, supplymethods for setting the name, setting the age, getting the name and getting theage.The class should not contain I/O methods; input of values to the instancevariables must be done with a set method or constructor, output of values fromthe instance variables must be done with get methods. The set method for thename instance variable should ensure that the input is not empty or containwhitespaces (otherwise set a default value). The set method for the ageinstance variable should validate the input to be between 1 and 4 inclusive(otherwise set a default value).Give Java code for an equals method for the Baby class. Babies count asbeing the same (i.e. equal) if…

- Write a class called Investment with fields called principal and interest. The constructor should set the values of those fields. There should be a method called value_after that returns the value of the investment after n years. The formula for this is p(1+i)ⁿ, where p is the principal, and i is the interest rate.arrow_forwardWrite a Java program: In the board game Scrabble, each tile contains a letter, which is used to spell words in rows and columns, and a score, which is used to determine the value of words. The point of this exercise is to practice the mechanical part of creating a new class definition: Write a definition for a class named Tile that represents Scrabble tiles. The instance variables should be a character named "letter" and an integer named "value". Write a constructor that takes parameters named letter and value, and initializes the instance variables. Create getters for both of the attributes. (No setters, so that a Tile is immutable.) Implement the .toString() and .equals methods for a Tile.arrow_forwardWrite in java: Define a class called Country. A Country has populationSize, area, capital, currency, and abbreviation (2-3 letters taken from the country name). Define at least two constructors, at least two getter methods, at least two setter methods, and Override the toString() and the equals() methods. The equals() must return true if the two countries have the same capital and populationSize and returns false otherwise. The abbreviation is the second letter and first letter of the country name and must be generated automatically (e.g. if the country name is Palestine the abbreviation is AP, if the country name is Jordan the abbreviation is OJ.) Write a main method, define an array of country objects, read countries data from the user, if two countries have the same abbreviation add the last letter from the country name to the abbreviation of the country inserted last. Display countries whose capital name ends with the letter ‘a’ or ‘A’arrow_forward

The class will contain the following attributes: •RoomNo (int) •PhoneNumber (string) •Capacity (int) – Number of people that room can accommodate. •Grade (int) – Grade of room ranging 1-5, 5 being most valuable. Your class should have a constructor that takes a single parameter: RoomNo. The necessary accessors (i.e. get methods) and mutators (i.e. set methods) for class variables: Room number only accessor Phone number both mutator and accessor Capacity both mutator and accessor Grade both mutator and accessor 2.Write a Java class called Hotel that represents a hotel.

Besides this, you have a Doctor class with private instance variables (docID, docName, and docFee) and a public getDoc() method, Patient class with private instance variables (pName, pID. pDisease), Medicine class with private instance variables (medID, medName, medQty, medPrice), and Medical Test class with private instance variables (testID, testName, testPrice). Each of these classes has the toString() method to display the information of its object. The Billing class is having "Has A" relationship with the other four classes (Doctor, Patient, Medicine, and MedicalTest) mentioned above. The getPayment Amount() method of Billing class returns the total billing amount that includes doc fee, medicine cost, and medical test fee that a patient has to pay.

Set the first name only. 3 Set the middle name. 4. Check whether a given last name is the same as the last name of this person. 5. Check wether a given first name is the same as the first name of this person. 6. Check whether a given middle name is the same as the middle name of thi person. 7.

- write the following 3 classes for the Java program so that this program produces the sample output shown at the end of Main. ElectricCar: a vehicle with a limited range. So it must be a subclass of Vehicle, and it must implement LimitedRange. Thus it needs an instance variable for its range, and a travel method (required by Vehicle. Please use @Override) that outputs "Zoom!" if it has enough range to go the distance specified (and update its range). It must have a constructor with 3 arguments as called by main. It also needs a getCurrentRange method as required by LimitedRange (use @Override for this too). Motorboat: a vehicle with a limited range. So it is similar to ElectricCar, but it outputs "Wisshhh!" when it goes. Sailboat: a vehicle that doesn't have a limited range. So it is a subclass of Vehicle, but doesn't implement LimitedRange. It can go any distance, and outputs "Weee!" when it travels.

It should return true if the country code is 1 and false otherwise. Also expanding the Phone class, write a method that determines the location of an area code. It should return the name of the area code's city. For example, if cc = 1 and area code = 510 East Bay Area, 650 SF Peninsula, 415 San Francisco, 408 South Bay Area. For this assignment, use literal strings as return values.arrow_forwarduse java Implement a class Car with the following properties.
