Answer to Question #292530 in C++ for Ash

Question

Please help me determine the C++ code for the following:

The dealer's cost of a car is 85% of the listed price. The dealer would accept any offer that is at least $500 over the dealer's cost. Design an algorithm that prompts the user to input the list price of the car and print the least amount that the dealer would accept for the car.

Answer 1

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;


int main(){
	float list_price;
	cout<<"Please enter the list price of the car: ";
	cin>>list_price;
	float dealers_cost = list_price * 0.85;
	float min_accepted_price = dealers_cost + 500;
	cout<<"The least amount that the dealer would accept for the car: "<<min_accepted_price<<"\n\n";


	system("pause");
	return 0;
}
