Airline companies apply baggage restrictions for their passengers. An
airline company has decided to apply a 10kg limitation for
passengers' hand luggage and 20kg for their normal baggage. When
passengers arrive, they enter their hand and normal luggage weight
from the keyboard. If passengers exceed their normal baggage
allowance of 10 dollars per gram, they pay 12 dollars per kg.
Accordingly, write the program that calculates the baggage price of
the airline they will go to according to the baggage values entered by
the arriving passenger and keeps this from closing the program for
each passenger. Note: If hand and normal baggage allowances are
stretched below the maximum value, the payment amount will be
considered not negative. An example printout is given on the right.

When Jacob Steinberg began his trip from California to Vermont, he filled his car’s tank with gas and reset its trip meter to 0. After traveling 324 miles, Jacob stopped at a gas station to refuel; the gas tank required 17 gallons. Jacob wants a program that calculates and displays his car’s gas mileage at any time during the trip. The gas mileage is the number of miles his car can be driven per gallon of gas. Desk-check your solution’s algorithm using 324 as the number of miles driven and 17 as the number of gallons used; then desk-check it using 280 and 15.
A county collects property taxes on the assessment value of property, which is 60 percent of the property’s actual value. If an acre of land is valued at $10,000, its assessment value is $6,000. The property tax is then 75¢ for each $100 of the assessment value. The tax for the acre assessed at $6,000 will be $45. Write a program that asks for the actual value of a piece of property and displays the assessment value and property tax.

- Body Mass Index (BMI) is a measure of health on weight. It can be calculated by taking your weight in kilograms and dividing by the square of your height in meters. Write a program which prompts the user to enter the weight in kgs (integer value) and height in feet and inches (both integers) and then calculates the BMI of the person. Your program first need to convert inches to meters (i.e. inches * 0.0254) and then use the following formula to calculate BMI: weight kilogram / (height_meter)^2 Your program displays the BMI value in two decimal places and the corresponding status as shown in the examples below. Note that one inch is 0.0254 meters and 1 foot is 12 inches. For example: Input Result 62 5 10 89 6 0 45 BMI BMI < 18.5 18.5 s BMI < 25.0 25.0 ≤ BMI < 30.0 30.0 ≤ BMI 7 82 5 Interpretation Underweight Normal Overweight Obese 2 Enter weight (kg): Enter height (feet): Enter height (inches): BMI is 19.61, Normal Enter weight (kg): Enter height (feet): Enter height (inches): BMI is…arrow_forwardMadison County collects property taxes on the assessed value of property, which is 60 percent of its actual value. For example, if a house is valued at $158,000 its assessed value is $94,800. This is the amount the homeowner pays tax on. At last year’s tax rate of $2.64 for each $100 of assessed value, the annual property tax for this house would be $2502.72. Write a program that asks the user to input the actual value of a piece of property and the current tax rate for each $100 of assessed value. The program should then calculate and report how much annual property tax the homeowner will be charged for this property.arrow_forwardYou arrive in front of a bridge that you must cross to reach a village before dark. Crossing the bridge is not free - the bridgekeeper asks you to roll two dice to determine the cost. You decide to write a program to verify that he is charging the right price. Your program should read two integers, between 1 and 6, representing the values of each die. If the sum is greater than or equal to 10, then you must pay a special fee (36 coins). Otherwise, you pay twice the sum of the values of the two dice. Your program must then display the text "Special tax" or "Regular tax" followed by the amount you have to pay on the next line.arrow_forward
- Body mass index (BMI) is a measure of health based on weight. It can be calculated by taking your weight in kilograms and dividing it by the square of your height in meters. Write a program that prompts the user to enter a weight in pounds and height in inches and displays the BMI. Note that one pound is 0.45359237 kilograms and one inch is 0.0254 meters.arrow_forwardAlyssa is very particular about what she gets for dinner. The more hungry she is, the more she can not figure out what to eat! Write a short program that asks a few questions and then makes the correct suggestion based on the following rules: Alyssa considers any temperature below 50 to be cold and anything 50 and above to be warm. If it is cold and raining, Alyssa wants to have soup. If none of these rules apply, Alyssa will always have meatballs. Alyssa has to eat before class starts! When it is 15 minutes or less until class, she gets a sandwich. This is the most important rule. Your program should prompt the user with the following.

For example, if an acre of land is valued at #10,000, it assessment value is $6,000. The property tax is then 72 cents for each $100 of the assessment value. The tax for the acre assessed at $6,000 will be $43.20. Write a program that asks for the actual value of a piece of property and displays the assessment value and property tax.arrow_forwardf. A laborant in a laboratory does a number of antigen tests in one day. Write a program that simulates the number of antigen tests done in a day in a laboratory, displays the number of positives and negatives, and calculates the % of positives in one day. Your program needs to first generate a random number that will show the number of tests done in a day. One laboratory in a day cannot do more than 100 tests and less than 1 (they do at least one). Then for each of the tests, your program needs to generate a random number to show whether they are positive or negative. In order to write this program, you need to have the following three functions used by the main function: test result (void): This function generates a test result. It should randomly return either one or zero. 1 means positive test result and 0 means negative test result. float positive percentage (int,int) : This function takes the total number of positives and the total number of tests and returns the % of positives.…arrow_forward

You have been asked to write a program to calculate the sale price of the item. To determine the sale price you perform two calculations: you get the amount of the discount, which is 25 percent of the item's regular price. you subtract the discount amount from the item's regular price. This gives you the sale price.arrow_forwardA country charges income tax as follows based on one’s gross salary. No tax is charged on the first 20% of salary.
