Question

The cost to ship a package is a flat fee of 75 cents plus 25 cents per pound.

1. Declare a constant named CENTS_PER_POUND and initialize with 25.
2. Get the shipping weight from user input storing the weight into shipWeightPounds.
3. Using FLAT_FEE_CENTS and CENTS_PER_POUND constants, assign shipCostCents with the cost of shipping a package weighing shipWeightPounds.

Answer 1

import java.util.*;

class ship_package {

public static void main(String[] args) {

Scanner scnr = new Scanner(System.in);

int shipWeightPounds;

int shipCostCents = 0;

final int FLAT_FEE_CENTS = 75, CENTS_PER_POUND = 25;

//Get user input

System.out.println("Enter weight: ");

shipWeightPounds = scnr.nextInt();

//Calc and print the result

shipCostCents = FLAT_FEE_CENTS + (CENTS_PER_POUND*shipWeightPounds);

System.out.println("Weight(lb): "+shipWeightPounds);

System.out.println("Flat fee(cents): "+FLAT_FEE_CENTS);

System.out.println("Cents per pound: "+CENTS_PER_POUND);

System.out.println("Shipping cost(cents): "+shipCostCents);

}

}
