(Use Python)
The function course_average should calculate and return the average of the three values pass to it.
The function main should ask the user to enter three grades and then pass these values to the course_average function. This function should also display a message to the user in the format below.
For example, if the user entered 100, 90 and 95 the message would be:The average of 100 , 90 and 95 is 95
(use Python)Write if/else code that adds one to the variable adults if the value of age is greater or equal to 18, and adds one to the variable minors otherwise.
For example:
Test
Result
adults=3 minors=3 age=18
adults = 4 minors = 3
(Apartment problem) A real estate office handles , say, 50 apartment units. When the rent is, say, $600 per month, all the units are occupied. However, for each, say $40 increase in rent, one unit becomes vacant. Moreover, each occupied unit requires an average of $27 per month for maintenance. How many units should be rented to maximize the profit?
Write a program that prompts the user to enter:
The total number of units.
The rent to occupy all the units.
The increase in rent that results in a vacant unit.
Amount to maintain rented unit.
The program then outputs the number of units to be rented to maximize the profit.

- (Calculating Weekly Pay) A company pays its employees as managers (who receive a fixedweekly salary), hourly workers (who receive a fixed hourly wage for up to the first 40 hours theywork and “time-and-a-half”—i.e., 1.5 times their hourly wage—for overtime hours worked), commission workers (who receive $250 plus 5.7% of their gross weekly sales), or pieceworkers (who receive a fixed amount of money for each of the items they produce—each pieceworker in thiscompany works on only one type of item). Write a program to compute the weekly pay for eachemployee. You do not know the number of employees in advance. Each type of employee has itsown pay code: Managers have paycode 1, hourly workers have code 2, commission workers havecode 3 and pieceworkers have code 4.

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_forwardState whether the following are true or false.

In the game, there are different brief cases, each labeled with a number. Inside each brief case is an amount in Pesos and the goal is to guess which briefcase contains the smallest amount. In this program, instead of just finding the smallest amount, your task is to ask the user for an integer input and print the values in the array smaller than the inputted integer. Instructions: In the code editor, you are provided with an array with 100 elements.Your task is to ask the user for an integer input and then print all the elements in the array whose value is lesser than the inputted integer.Input 1.

- (Prism Program) Write a program that can calculate the value of the surface area and volume of a Prism. The surface area of a rectangular prism is the total area of all six faces. When you have a cube, finding the area of one face allows you to find the total surface area of the solid very quickly, since it will be six times the area of one face. A = 2(width x length) + 2(length x height) + 2(height x width) Volume is the amount of 3-dimensional space an object occupies. Volume is measured in cubic units. To find the volume of a rectangular prism, we multiply the length of the prism by the width of the prism by the height of the prism. Volume of rectangular prism = length x width x height The input and Output of your program is as follows: Prism Mania! Prism Result!

Assume v0 is 5.6, v1 is 10.5, and t is 0.5, and write the code to display the average acceleration. Class Name: Exercise01_02Extraarrow_forward
