Chapter 3, Problem 4PP

It is difficult to make a budget that spans several years, because prices are not stable. If your company needs 200 pencils per year, you cannot simply use this year's price as the cost of pencils two years from now. Because of inflation, the cost is likely to be higher than it is today. Write a program to gauge the expected cost of an item in a specified number of years. The program asks for the cost of the item, the number of years from now that the item will be purchased, and the rate of inflation. The program then outputs the estimated cost of the item after the specified period. Have the user enter the inflation rate as a percentage, such as 5.6 (percent). Your program should then convert the percent to a fraction, such as 0.056 and should use a loop to estimate the price adjusted for inflation.

In various applications, you are often asked to compute the mean and standard deviation of data. The mean is simply the average of the numbers. The standard deviation is a statistic that tells you how tightly all the various data are clustered around the mean in a set of data. For example, what is the average age of the students in a class? How close are the ages? If all the students are the same age, the deviation is 0. Write a program that prompts the user to enter any number of values into a double array, and then calculates and displays the mean and standard deviations of these numbers using the following formulas: mean)? 2i +x2 + .. + xn i=1 i=1 mean = deviation = п - 1
this is a problem that I have how would I go about solving it? Stadium Seating There are three seating categories for a BC softball game. Class A seats cost $15, Class B seats cost $12, and Class C seats cost $9. Write a program that asks how many tickets for each class of seats were sold. Then display the total number of tickets sold, the amount of income generated from each class and the total ticket sales. Note: Use constants for the seat prices. Sample output: WELCOME TO THE BROWARD COLLEGE STADIUM!! Please enter the number of Class A seats sold: 100 Please enter the number of Class B seats sold: 200 Please enter the number of Class C seats sold: 150 ************************************************** Total number of tickets sold: 450 Income Generated: Class A:$1500.00 Class B: $2400.00 Class C: $1350.00 Total: $5250.00
