q no 3: A certain grade of steel is graded according to the following condition:
Hardness must be greater than 40
Carbon contents must be less than 0.8
Tensile strength must be greater than 5000
The grades are as follows:
Grade is 10 if all the three conditions are met.
Grade is 9 if conditions 1 and 2 are met.
Grade is 8 if conditions 2 and 3 are met.
Grade is 7 if conditions 1 and 3 are met.
Grade is 6 if only one condition is met.
Grade is 5 if none of the conditions are met.
Write a C++ program which will require user to give values of hardness, carbon content and tensile strength of the steel under consideration then determine the grade of steel and outputs the grade of the steel.

The firm's geologist believes the field has the potential to produce gas for many years. The revenue resulting from the gas well the first year after drilling is $600,000; based on previous experiences with similar types of wells, it is expected the annual revenue will decrease at an annual rate of 3%. Likewise, the costs of operating the well the first year totals $100,000; costs are expected to increase at an annual rate of 7%.
