C++ requirements

All values must be read in as type double and all calculations need to be done using type double.

For part 2 you MUST have at least 4 functions, including main. The main function will be the driver of the program. It needs to either do the processing or delegate the work to other functions.

Failure to follow the C++ requirements could reduce the points received from passing the tests.

General overview

This program will convert a set of temperatures from Fahrenheit to Celsius.

Your program will be reading in three double values. The first values are starting and ending temperatures. The third value is the increment value. There is no prompt for the input. There is an error message that can be displayed. This is discussed later.

You need to display output for all of the values between the starting and ending values. First two values are temperatures in Fahrenheit. You need to display all of the values from the first temperature to the last temperature. You increment from one temperature to the next by the increment value (the third value you read in). You need to convert these temperatures to Celsius. You need to output the temperatures as both Fahrenheit and Celsius. The numbers should be 15 characters wide with 3 digits of precision and need to be in fixed format. Do not use tab characters (\t) to output the values.

For part 2 you MUST have at least 4 functions, including main. The main function will be the driver of the program. It needs to either do the processing or delegate the work to other functions.

Obviously the main function will have the same function that you have been using for all of your labs. In addition to need to have a function with the following signature:

double convert(double fahrenheit)

Other functions that you may want to have are:

A function to read in the values

A display function

A display heading function

The headings are also required (see the sample output below).

The conversion from Fahrenheit to Celsius is:

celsius = (fahrenheit - 32) / 1.8

Here is a sample run with valid input:

-30 100 20

The output would be:

     Fahrenheit        Celsius
        -30.000        -34.444
        -10.000        -23.333
         10.000        -12.222
         30.000         -1.111
         50.000         10.000
         70.000         21.111
         90.000         32.222

For data validation you need to make sure the first number read in is less than or equal to the second number. The third number read in must be greater than 0. If this is not the case you need to output the following message and read in three new values:

Starting temperature must be <= ending temperature and increment must be > 0.0

The above message is all one line of output.

You need to keep reading in values and outputting messages until the values are all valid.

Using the following input :

40 30 5
30 40 -5
30 40 5

We get the output:

Starting temperature must be <= ending temperature and increment must be > 0.0
Starting temperature must be <= ending temperature and increment must be > 0.0
     Fahrenheit        Celsius
         30.000         -1.111
         35.000          1.667
         40.000          4.444

Depending on the value for the increment the ending temperature may not be reached. You need to display the temperatures where the value of the Fahrenheit temperature is less than or equal to the ending temperature.

Consider this input:

100.5 110.4 5

The valid output will be:

     Fahrenheit        Celsius
        100.500         38.056
        105.500         40.833

The last Fahrenheit temperature output is 105.5. The next one would have been 110.5, but this is more than the ending temperature of 100.4. This is not an error condition. The output would be as above.

Think about what other tests cases are needed? Do we cover all possible input problems or valid types of input values?

Expected output

There are eight tests. Each test will have a new set of input data. You must match, exactly, the expected output.

You will get yellow highlighted text when you run the tests if your output is not what is expected. This can be because you are not getting the correct result. It could also be because your formatting does not match what is required. The checking that zyBooks does is very exacting and you must match it exactly. More information about what the yellow highlighting means can be found in course "How to use zyBooks" - especially section "1.4 zyLab basics".

Finally, do not include a system("pause"); statement in your program. This will cause your verification steps to fail.

Haply Inc. contracts with Barksdale LLC to have an engine repaired. After much negotiation, the parties agree that the engine will be repaired and reinstalled at Haply’s facilities in 5 days. Haply plans on losing $40,000 a day for each day the engine is not delivered after the five-day window (this is the cost for a replacement engine).

Haply tells Barksdale’s representatives that if the engine is not repaired on time that bad press will cause Haply to lose a client’s business totaling $3,000,000. Barksdale does not complete the contract until day 7.

It cost Haply $500 to secure the delivery of a replacement engine. The actual rental of the replacement engine cost $40,000 a day. And Haply lost the business of a client totaling $3,000,000. Haply sues Barksdale for incidental, consequential and compensatory damages. The court finds that there is a breach of contract. What are the consequential, incidental, and compensatory damages that Barksdale is liable for in this case? Be sure to define each of those terms.

A new refrigerator is being designed. Magnets will be used to hold the door closed, and the rubber seal thickness can be selected to adjust the separation between the magnets (and therefore the force). The total length of rubber seal required to go around the door is 6m, and the cost of rubber seal is given equation 2. The pull force when opening the door should be 12N. Determine which of the magnet combinations should be used, and the combined cost of the magnets and seals per refrigerator.

Table 2. Material costs of neodymium magnets

$Cost/m of rubber seal = 30 T^-0.7                    Equation 2

where T = thickness of each seal in mm (half the separation between the magnets)

e) What is your decision regarding the stated hypotheses?

A) A person can take either of two routes to work, through Matteson or Richton Park. Both take on average 35 minutes, and travel times are Normally distributed. But are the variances of the travel times different? A random sample with n = 6 using the Matteson route, and another random sample with n = 7 using the Richton Park route, showed a variance of 40 (units: square minutes) and 30 respectively. To test whether the variances are different, the following test of hypothesis is to be carried out: H0: sigma subscript 1 superscript 2 space equals space sigma subscript 2 superscript 2 H1: sigma subscript 1 superscript 2 space not equal to space sigma subscript 2 superscript 2 To test this at 10% level of significance, what is the critical value for the test statistic? (Give two decimal places)

B) A supermarket claims that the average wait time at the checkout counter is less than 9 minutes. We can assume that the population is Normally distributed.

Consider

H0: mu >= 9

H1: mu < 9

A random sample of 50 customers yielded an average wait time of 8.5 minutes and a standard deviation of 2.5 minutes.

What is the value of the test statistic (tstat or t-sub-xbar)?

(Provide two decimal places)

Access the hourly wage data on the below Excel Data File (Hourly Wage). An economist wants to test if the average hourly wage is less than $28. Assume that the population standard deviation is $8.

b-1. Find the value of the test statistic. (Negative value should be indicated by a minus sign. Round intermediate calculations to at least 4 decimal places and final answer to 2 decimal places.)

8. Explain the liability of bailees for lost damaged, or destroyed goods?
