Answer 1

//Question #42085, Programming, C++
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main () {
   const float salesTaxRate = 7;
   const float interestRate = 9;
   float price;
   float downPayment;
   int numberOfYears;
   float monthlyPayment = 0;
   cout << "Please enter the price of the car :\n";
   cin >> price;
   
   cout << "Please enter down payment :\n";
   cin >> downPayment;
   cout << "Please enter the number of years for the loan :\n";
   cin >> numberOfYears;
   price += price*(salesTaxRate / 100); //add to the price  the tax for the sale
   price -= downPayment;// price without downPayment
   price += price*(interestRate/100); // add to the price interest Rate
   monthlyPayment = price / (numberOfYears*12);
   cout << "You will pay " << monthlyPayment << " in a month.\n";
   return 0;
}
