Question

Write a program which will enter information relating to a speeding violation and then compute the amount of the speeding ticket. The program will need to enter the posted speed limit, actual speed the car was going, and whether or not the car was in a school zone and the date of the violation. Additionally, you will collect information about the driver (see output for specifics). The way speeding tickets are computed differs from city to city. For this assignment, we will use these rules, which need to be applied in this order:

Answer 1

Answer:

In Java:

import java.util.*;

public class Main{

public static void main(String[] args) {

 Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);

 float speedlimit, actualspeed;

 String ddate;

 int schoolzone;

 System.out.print("Speed Limit: ");

 speedlimit = input.nextFloat();

 System.out.print("Actual Speed: ");

 actualspeed = input.nextFloat();

 System.out.print("Date: ");

 ddate = input.nextLine();

 System.out.print("School Zone (1-Yes): ");

 schoolzone = input.nextInt();

 float ticket = 75;

 ticket += 6 * (actualspeed - speedlimit);

 

 if(actualspeed - speedlimit > 30){

     ticket+=160;

 }

 if(schoolzone == 1){

     ticket*=2;

 }  

 System.out.print("Date: "+ddate);

 System.out.print("Speed Limit: "+speedlimit);

 System.out.print("Actual Speed: "+actualspeed);

 System.out.print("Ticket: "+ticket);

}

}

Explanation:

See attachment for complete program requirements

This declares speedlimit and actualspeed as floats

float speedlimit, actualspeed;

This declares ddate as string

 String ddate;

This declares schoolzone as integer

 int schoolzone;

This prompts the user for speed limit

 System.out.print("Speed Limit: ");

This gets the speed limit

 speedlimit = input.nextFloat();

This prompts the user for actual speed

 System.out.print("Actual Speed: ");

This gets the actual speed

 actualspeed = input.nextFloat();

This prompts the user for date

 System.out.print("Date: ");

This gets the date

 ddate = input.nextLine();

This prompts the user for school zone (1 means Yes, other inputs means No)

 System.out.print("School Zone (1-Yes): ");

This gets the input for schoolzone

schoolzone = input.nextInt();

This initializes ticket to $75

 float ticket = 75;

This calculates the additional cost based on difference between speed limits and the actual speed

 ticket += 6 * (actualspeed - speedlimit);

If the difference between the speeds is greater than 30, this adds 160 to the ticket  

 if(actualspeed - speedlimit > 30){

     ticket+=160;

 }

If it is in a school zone, this doubles the ticket

 if(schoolzone == 1){

     ticket*=2;

 }  

The following print the ticket information

 System.out.print("Date: "+ddate);

 System.out.print("Speed Limit: "+speedlimit);

 System.out.print("Actual Speed: "+actualspeed);

 System.out.print("Ticket: "+ticket);
