Chapter 3, Problem 6PP

The Fibonacci numbers F are defined as follows. F is 1, F is 1, and

Fi+2 = Fi + Fi+1

i = 0, 1, 2, … . In other words, each number is the sum of the previous two numbers. The first few Fibonacci numbers are 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, and 8. One place that these numbers occur is as certain population growth rates. If a population has no deaths, then the series shows the size of the population after each time period. It takes an organism two time periods to mature to reproducing age, and then the organism reproduces once every time period. The formula applies most straightforwardly to asexual reproduction at a rate of one offspring per time period.

Assume that the green crud population grows at this rate and has a time period of 5 days. Hence, if a green crud population starts out as 10 pounds of crud, then in 5 days there is still 10 pounds of crud; in 10 days there is 20 pounds of crud, in 15 days 30 pounds, in 20 days 50 pounds, and so forth. Write a program that takes both the initial size of a green crud population (in pounds) and a number of days as input, and that outputs the number of pounds of green crud after that many days. Assume that the population size is the same for 4 days and then increases every fifth day. Your program should allow the user to repeat this calculation as often as desired.

When you use a mortgage to purchase a home, the lending institution effectively owns the home. You buy back part ownership in the home with each monthly payment. The part you have bought back is your equity in the home. If the mortgage amount is P dollars, the monthly interest rate is r as a decimal, and the term of the mortgage is t months, then your equity after k payments is E(k) = P((1 + r)k − 1) (1 + r)t − 1  dollars. In this exercise, assume that the mortgage amount is $200,000, the APR is 6%  so r = .06/12  and the term of the loan is 30 years (360 months). (a) Find a formula for the equity. (b) Make a graph of the equity over 360 months, the term of the loan. (c) Does the graph show that you have half-ownership in the home halfway through the term of the mortgage? Halfway through the term of the mortgage corresponds to k1 = _______ payments. From the graph, we see that E(k1) is ________ half of the mortgage amount, so we  _______ have half-ownership in the home…
When you borrow money to buy a house, a car, or for some other purposes, then you typically repay it by making periodic payments. Suppose that the loan amount is L, r is the interest rate per year, m is the number of payments in a year, and the loan is for t years. Suppose that i = (r / m) and r is in decimal. Then the periodic payment is:     You can also calculate the unpaid loan balance after making certain payments. For example, the unpaid balance after making k payments is:     where R is the periodic payment. (Note that if the payments are monthly, then m = 12.) Instructions Write a program that prompts the user to input the values of L, r, m, t, and k. The program then outputs the appropriate values. Your program must contain at least two functions, with appropriate parameters, to calculate the periodic payments and the unpaid balance after certain payments. Make the program menu driven and use a loop so that the user can repeat the program for different values. Example of…
A year in the modern Gregorian Calendar consists of 365 days. In reality, the earth takes longer to rotate around the sun. To account for the difference in time, every 4 years, a leap year takes place. A leap year is when a year has 366 days: An extra day, February 29th. The requirements for a given year to be a leap year are: The year must be divisible by 4 If the year is a century year (1700, 1800, etc.), the year must be evenly divisible by 400 Some example leap years are 1600, 1712, and 2016. Write a program that takes in a year and determines whether that year is a leap year. Ex: If the input is 1712, the output is: 1712 is a leap year. Ex: If the input is 1913, the output is: 1913 is not a leap year.     1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11               Put("{} is a leap year.".format(i_year))   print("{} is not a leap year.".format(i_year))   inputYear = Get next input   What would be the code?
