CashRegister Class

Write a CashRegister class that can be used with the RetailItem class that you wrote in Chapter 6’s Programming Challenge 4. The CashRegister class should simulate the sale of a retail item. It should have a constructor that accepts a RetailItem object as an argument. The constructor should also accept an integer that represents the quantity of items being purchased. In addition, the class should have the following methods:

  • The getSubtotal method should return the subtotal of the sale, which is the quantity multiplied by the price. This method must get the price from the RetailItem object that was passed as an argument to the constructor.
  • The getTax method should return the amount of sales tax on the purchase. The sales tax rate is 6 percent of a retail sale.
  • The getTotal method should return the total of the sale, which is the subtotal plus the sales tax.

Demonstrate the class in a program that asks the user for the quantity of items being purchased, and then displays the sale’s subtotal, amount of sales tax, and total.

JAVA - USING CONSTRUCTORS Create a class named House that includes data fields for the number of occupants and the annual income as well as methods named setOccupants(), setIncome(), getOccupants() and getIncome() that set and return those values respectively. Additionally, create a constructor that requires no arguments and automatically sets the occupants field to 1 and income field to 0. Create an additional overloaded constructor . This constructor receives an integer argument and assigns the value to the occupants field. Create a third overloaded constructor this time, the constructor receives 2 arguments, the values of which are assigned to the occupants and income fields respectively. Create another class named I_house that instantiates the House class and see if the constructors work correctly.
Circle ClassWrite a Circle class that has the following fields:•  radius: a double•  PI: a final double initialized with the value 3.14159The class should have the following methods:•  Constructor. Accepts the radius of the circle as an argument.•  Constructor. A no-arg constructor that sets the radius field to 0.0.•  setRadius. A mutator method for the radius field.•  getRadius. An accessor method for the radius field.•  area. Returns the area of the circle, which is calculated asarea = PI * radius * radius•  diameter. Returns the diameter of the circle, which is calculated asdiameter = radius * 2•  circumference. Returns the circumference of the circle, which is calculated ascircumference = 2 * PI * radiusWrite a program that demonstrates the Circle class by asking the user for the circle’s radius, creating a Circle object, and then reporting the circle’s area, diameter, and circumference.

Accepts the radius of the circles as an argument. Constructor. A no-arg constructor that sets the radius field to 0.0. setRadius. A mutator method for the radius field. getRadius.An accessor method for the radius field. area. Returns the area of the circle, which is calculated as area. Returns the area of the circles, which is calculated as area= PI * radius * radius diameter. Returns the diameter of the cirlce, which is calculated as diameter = radius * 2 circumference. Returns the circumference of the circle, which is calculated as circumference = 2 * PI * radius Write a program that demonstrates the Circle class by asking the user for the circles's radius, creating a Circle object, and then reporting the cirlce's area, diameter, and circumference.
