Question

In C++, write a program that generates a random number for (x) to calculate A with the given formula: 

A = (2/5 * ((x ^ 2) - 6))

 

Expert Solution
Note :
  1. I have added the comments.
  2. I have also added 3 output samples to show that every time a different random number is getting created.
  3. Code will generate random numbers between 0 to 99. I have added the range to the random number because some compilers create big random numbers and the output may come with scientific notation e. For example, Computer Science homework question answer, step 1, image 1.
  4. If you don't want ranged random numbers then simply remove %100 from the code.
  5. If you want to change anything or if you want to add more functionality to the code then feel free to ask the question.
  6. Thank you.
