2. Calories Burned
Running on a particular treadmill you burn 3.9 calories per minute. Design a program that uses a loop
to display the number of calories burned after 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30 minutes.
// This program calculates and displays the number of calories burned for
// 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30 minutes on a particular treadmill.
// Declare the variables for Calories Burned and counter for loop
Declare Real calsBurned = 0
Declare Integer counter = 10
// Declare constant for calories burned per minute
Constant Real CALS_PER_MIN = 3.9
// For loop to make each calculation and display the result.
// Increment counter by 5.
For counter = 10 to 30 Step 5
calsBurned = counter * CALS_PER_MIN
Display counter, minutes on the treadmill will burn , calsBurned,
calories.

5. Tuition Increase

At one college, the tuition for a full-time student is $6000 per semester. It has been announced that
the tuition will increase by 2 percent each year for the next five years. Design a program with a loop
that displays the projected semester tuition amount for the next five years.
// This program calculates and displays the projected semester tuition for the
// next five years given a 2% per year tuition increase.
// Declare variables for tuition and counter
Declare Real tuition = 6000.00
Declare Integer counter = 1
// Declare constant for 2% yearly tuition increase
Constant Real PERCENT_INCREASE
// Call intro text module
introText(tuition)
// For loop to calculate and display the projected tuition for each of the
// next five years
For counter = 1 To 5
tuition = tuition * 1.02
Display Year , counter, tuition will be , currencyFormat(tuition), .
Loop
// Call exit module
closing()
// Intro Module
Module introText(Real tuition)
Display Current tuition: , currencyFormat(tuition)
Display // blank line
Display Projected tuition for the next five years with the 2% increase:
Display // blank line
