Driving costs - functions
Learning Objectives
Create a function to match the specifications
Use floating-point value division
Instructions
Driving is expensive. Write a program with a car's miles/gallon and gas dollars/gallon (both floats) as input, and output the gas cost for 10 miles, 50 miles, and 400 miles.
Output each floating-point value with two digits after the decimal point, which can be achieved as follows: print(f'{your_value:.2f}')
Ex: If the input to your program is:
20.0 3.1599
the output is:
The gas cost for 10 miles is $1.58 The gas cost for 50 miles is $7.90 The gas cost for 400 miles is $63.20
Your program must define and call the driving_cost() function. Given input parameters driven_miles, miles_per_gallon, and dollars_per_gallon, the function returns the dollar cost to drive those miles.
Ex: If the function is called with:
50 20.0 3.1599
the function returns:
7.89975
def driving_cost(driven_miles, miles_per_gallon, dollars_per_gallon)

1. Rectangle Area
ngle Area
The area of a rectangle is calculated according to the following formula:
Area =
Width X Length
Design a function that accepts a rectangle's width and length as arguments and
returns the rectangle's area. Use the function in a program that prompts the user to
enter the rectangle's width and length, and then displays the rectangle's area.
The Problem__:
Write a program that calculates the average of a group of test scores, where the lowest score in the group is dropped. It should use the following functions:
⚫ void getScore() should ask the user for a test score, store it in a reference param- eter variable, and validate it. This function should be called by main once for each of the five scores to be entered.
⚫ void calcAverage() should calculate and display the average of the four highest scores. This function should be called just once by main and should be passed the five scores.
⚫int findLowest() should find and return the lowest of the five scores passed to it. It should be called by calcAverage, which uses the function to determine which of the five scores to drop.
Input Validation: Do not accept test scores lower than 0 or higher than 100.
YOU MUST USE THE STATED FUNCTIONS AND COMPLETE Input VALIDATION.
**DO NOT use an ARRAY OR GLOBAL VARIABLES!!.
you MUST USE function prototyping

The data in the following chart was collected on a recent automobile trip: Write a C++ program that accepts a mileage and gallons value and calculates the miles pergallon (mpg) for that segment of the trip. The mpg is obtained as the difference in mileage between fill-ups divided by the number of gallons of gasoline used in the fill-up. b. Modify the program written for Exercise 9a to also compute and display the cumulative mpg after each fill-up. The cumulative mpg is calculated as the difference between the mileage at each fill-up and the mileage at the start of the trip divided by the sum of gallons used to that point in the trip.arrow_forward

One of the functions should accept arguments for the in-patient data, while the other function accepts arguments for out-patient information. Both functions should return the total charges.

Fractional scores, such as 8.3, are allowed. A performer's final score is determined by dropping the highest and lowest score received, then averaging the three remaining scores. Write a program that uses this method to calculate a contestant's score. It should include the following functions: void getJudgeData() should ask the user for a judge's score, store it in a reference parameter variable, and validate it. This function should be called by main once for each of the five judges. void calcScore() should calculate and display the average of the three scores that remain after dropping the highest and lowest scores the performer received. This function should be called just once by main and should be passed the five scores.

"In swimming, a lap is the same as a length. By definition, a lap means a complete trip around a race track, in swimming, the pool is the race track. Therefore if you swim from one end to the other, you’ve completed the track and thus you’ve completed one lap or one length." (Source: What Is A Lap In Swimming?
