Write a C ++ program
that asks the user for the speed of a vehicle (in miles per hour)
and how many hours it has traveled. The program should then use a
loop to display the distance the vehicle has traveled for each hour
of that time period. Here is an example of the output:
What is the speed of the vehicle in mph? 40
How many hours has it traveled? 3
Hour Distance Traveled
--------------------------------
1
40
2
80
3
120
Input Validation: Do not accept a negative number for speed and do
not accept any value less than 1 for time traveled.
Distance
Traveled
The distance a vehicle travels can be calculated as follows:
distance = speed * time
For example, if a train travels 40 miles per hour for 3 hours, the
distance traveled is 120 miles.

Introduce variables to represent items of interest in the problem. For
example, (1) Let n be the number to be found, or (2) Let a be Alice’s
current age, or (3) Let r be the rate of the first car.
(2)
Write down an equation using the information given in the problem. This
is the really important part for this particular assignment!
(3)
Solve the equation and find the value requested in the problem.
The distance between A and B is 180 miles. An automobile at A starts for B are the rate of 40 miles per hour at the same time that an automobile at B starts for A at the rate of 50 miles per
hour. How long will it be before the automobiles meet?
A snail leaves A and travels at the rate of four inches per minute to B. At B the snail catches a ride on a turtle and is carried back the A at the rate of ten inches per minute. If the round trip takes 14 minutes, what is the distance between A and B?
Two boats start at the same point, one goes straight north, the
other straight south. The first boat travels twice as fast as the
second. After three hours they are 72 miles apart. Find the rate
of the faster boat.

You have been tasked to write a new program for the Research Center's shipping department. The shipping charges for the center are as follows:
Weight of Package (in
kilograms)
Rate per mile Shipped
2 kg or
less
$0.05
Over 2 kg but no more than 6 kg $0.09
Over 6 kg but not more than 10 kg $0.12
Over 10 kg $0.20
Write a function in a program that asks for the weight of a package in kilograms and the distance it is to be shipped. Using that data, write another function that calculates the shipping charge and returns it to the main program and displays the value there.
For the second function, pass the two values (weight and distance) into the function as arguments. In the function if the shipping distance the user provided earlier is a distance greater than 200 miles, there will be an additional charge of $25 added to the order. For example, if an item weighing 20 kg is shipped 250 miles, the total cost will be $75, calculated by the formula: ((250 miles * 0.20) + 25).
input validation: Do not accept any weights less than 0.5 kilograms, nor any distances less than 0 miles.

Your small remodeling business has two work vehicles. One is a small passenger car used for job site visits and for other general business purposes. The other is a heavy truck used to haul equipment. The car gets 25 miles per gallon (mpg). The truck gets 10 mpg. You want to improve gas mileage to save money, and you have enough money to upgrade one vehicle. The upgrade cost will be the same for both vehicles. An upgraded car will get 40 mpg; an upgraded truck will get 12.5 mpg. The cost of gasoline is $2.65 per gallon. Calculate the annual fuel savings in gallons for the truck and car assuming both vehicles are driven 12,000 miles per year. (Do not round intermediate calculations.) Assuming an upgrade is a good idea in the first place, which one should you upgrade? Both vehicles are driven 12,000 miles per year.

Assume that at the beginning of 2015 Fast Delivery purchased a used Jumbo 747 aircraft at a cost of $55,200,000. Fast Delivery expects the plane to remain useful for five years (6,800,000 miles) and to have a residual value of $5,200,000. Fast Delivery expects to fly the plane 835,000 miles the first year, 1,225,000 miles each year during the second, third, and fourth years, and 2,290,000 miles the last year.
1. Compute Fast Delivery's depreciation for the first two years on the plane using the following methods:
a. Straight-line method
b. Units-of-production method (round depreciation per mile to the closest cent)
c. Double-declining-balance method
2. Show the airplane's book value at the end of the first year under each depreciation method.
Answers:
A. Using the straight-line method, depreciation is $_________ for 2015 and $__________ for 2016.
B. Using the units-of-production method, depreciation is $__________ for 2015 and $__________ for 2016
C. Using the doubling-decling-balance method, depreciation is $_________ for 2015 and $________ for 2016

The book’s Atlanta Commute (distance) dataset (available
directly on StatKey) provides
the commute distances in miles for 500 randomly chosen people who
work in the Atlanta
metropolitan area.
(a) Use StatKey to obtain the mean and standard deviation of the
commute distances in this
sample.
(b) Use StatKey to create 5000 bootstrap samples and a bootstrap
distribution of sample
means. What are the mean and standard error of your bootstrap
distribution?
(c) Use your bootstrap distribution to determine 95% and 99%
confidence intervals for the
average commute distance of workers in the Atlanta metropolitan
area. Determine the
margin of error for each of these confidence intervals. What
happens to the margin of
error as the confidence level increases?
(d) Based on your bootstrap distribution and your interval
estimates, which of the following
is most likely and which is least likely?
i. the average commute distance for people who work in the Atlanta
metropolitan area
is less than 20 miles
ii. the average commute distance for people who work in the Atlanta
metropolitan area
is around 20 miles
iii. the average commute distance for people who work in the
Atlanta metropolitan area
is greater than 20 miles

The Toyota Camry is one of the best-selling cars in North America. The cost of a previously owned Camry depends on many factors, including the model year, mileage, and condition. To investigate the relationship between the car’s mileage and the sales price for Camrys, the following data show the mileage and sale price for 19 sales (PriceHub web site, February 24, 2012).
