Two cars A and B leave an intersection at the same time. Car A travels west at an average speed of x miles per hour and car B tr

avels south at an average speed of y miles per hour. Write a program that prompts the user to enter: The average speed of both the cars The elapsed time (in hours and minutes, separated by a space) Ex: For two hours and 30 minutes, 2 30 would be entered

Answer:

Here is the C++ program:

#include <iostream>  // to use input output functions

#include <cmath>  // to use math functions like sqrt()

#include <iomanip>  //to use setprecision method

using namespace std;   //to access objects like cin cout

int main ()  {  //start of main function

  double speedA;  //double type variable to store average speed of car A

  double speedB;  //double type variable to store average speed of car B

  int hour;  //int type variable to hold hour part of elapsed time

  int minutes;  //int type variable to hold minutes part of elapsed time

  double shortDistance;  // double type variable to store the result of shortest distance between car A and B

  double distanceA;  //stores the distance of carA

  double distanceB;  //stores the distance of carB

  double mins,hours;   //used to convert the elapsed time

cout << "Enter average speed of car A: " << endl;  //prompt user to enter the average speed of car A

cin >> speedA;   //reads the input value of average speed of car A from user

cout << "Enter average speed of car B: " << endl ;  //prompt user to enter the average speed of car B

cin >> speedB;   //reads the input value of average speed of car A from user

cout << "Enter elapsed time (in hours and minutes, separated by a space): " << endl;  //prompts user to enter elapsed time

cin>> hour >> minutes;    //reads elapsed time in hours and minutes

  mins = hour * 60;  //computes the minutes using value of hour

  hours = (minutes+mins)/60;     //computes hours using minutes and mins

distanceA = speedA * (hours);  // computes distance of car A

distanceB = speedB * (hours);   //computes distance of car B

   shortDistance =sqrt((distanceA * distanceA) + (distanceB * distanceB));   //computes shortest distance using formula √[(distanceA)² + (distanceB)²)]

cout << "The (shortest) distance between the cars is: "<<fixed<<setprecision(2)<<shortDistance;

//display the resultant value of shortDistance up to 2 decimal places

Explanation:

I will explain the program with an examples:

Let us suppose that the average speeds of cars are:

speedA = 70

speedB = 55

Elapsed time in hours and minutes:

hour = 2

minutes = 30

After taking these input values the program control moves to the statement:

mins = hour * 60;  

This becomes

mins = 2 * 60

mins = 120

Next

hours = (minutes+mins)/60;

hours = (30 + 120) / 60

         = 150/60

hours = 2.5

Now the next two statements compute distance of the cars:

distanceA = speedA * (hours);  

this becomes

distanceA = 70 * (2.5)

distanceA = 175

distanceB = speedB * (hours);

distanceB = 55 * (2.5)

distanceB = 137.5

Next the shortest distance between car A and car B is computed:

shortDistance = sqrt((distanceA * distanceA) + (distanceB * distanceB));

shortDistance = sqrt((175 * 175) + (137.5 * 137.5))

                        = sqrt(30625 + 18906.25)

                        = sqrt(49531.25)

                        =  222.556173

shortDistance =  222.56

 

Hence the output is:

The (shortest) distance between the cars is: 222.56

What does the “MIN” and “MAX” functions allow you to do when inserted in a spreadsheet?
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

Please see explanation

Explanation:

A spreadsheet is used to make calculations and payrolls etc. Different functions are used in spreadsheet. Two of them are MIN and MAX.

The MIN function gives the minimum value out of all the cells in the range.

It is written as:

= MIN(number1, number2..)

OR

= MIN(Starting_cell_address:Last_cell_address)

Similarly, MAX function gives the maximum value from the selected range of cells.

= MAX(number1, number2..)

OR

= MAX(Starting_cell_address:Last_cell_address)
