Question

The cost of an international call from New York to New Delhi is calculated as follows: Connection fee, $1.99; $2.00 for the first three minutes; and $0.45 for each additional minute. Write a program that prompts the user to enter the number of minutes the call lasted and outputs the amount due. Format your output with 2 decimal places c++

Answer 1

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int main()

{

double minutes, cost = 0;

cout<<"Enter the number of minutes: ";

cin >> minutes;

if (minutes <= 3)

cost = 1.99 + (minutes * 2);

else

cost = 1.99 + (2 * 3 + (minutes - 3) *0.45);

cout <<"The cost is: " << cost <<endl;

return 0;

}

Step-by-step explanation:

Declare the variables

Ask the user for the minutes

Check the minutes:

If it is less than or equal to 3, calculate the cost by summing multiplication of the minutes by 2 and 1.99

Otherwise, calculate the cost by summing the multiplication of the first 3 minutes by 2, multiplication of the remaining minutes by 0.45 and 1.99

Print the the cost
