Question

A parking garage charges a $2.00 minimum fee to park for up to three hours. The garage charges an additional $0.50 per hour for each hour or part thereof in excess of three hours. The maximum charge for any given 24-hour period is $10.00. Assume that no car is parks for longer than 24 hours at a time. Write a program that will calculate and print the parking charges for each of 3 customers who parked their cars in this garage yesterday. You should enter the hours parked for eached customer. Your program should print the results in a tabular format and slould calculate and print the total of yesterday's receipts. The program should have a function named calculateCharges to determine the charge for each customer. Your outputs should appear in the following format: I don't know what I'm doing wrong.

#include <iostream>

#include <iomanip>

#include <cstdlib>

#include <cmath>

using std::cout;

using std::endl;

using std::cin;

using std::setw;

double calculateCharges( double );

int main() {

double charge = 0;

double hours = 0;

double total;

double cars;

double car1, car2, car3;

cout << "Enter Hours for Car1: " << car1 << endl;

cin >> car1;

cout << "Enter Hours for Car2: " << car2 << endl;

cin >> car2;

cout << "Enter Hours for Car3: " << car3 << endl;

cin >> car3;

  cout << "Charge Car1: " << car1 << endl;

cout << "Charge Car2: " << car2 << endl;

cout << "Charge Car3: " << car3 << endl;

   

         

cout << "Cars" << setw( 13 ) << "Hours" << setw( 13 ) << "Charge" << endl;

cout << "   1" << setw( 13 ) << car1 << endl;

cout << "   2" << setw( 13 ) << car2 << endl;

cout << "   3" << setw( 13 ) << car3 << endl;

return 0;

}

double calculateCharges( double ){

double hours = 3, charge = 2.00;

if (hours <= 3)

charge = 2.00;

else if (hours >= 24)

charge = 2.50;

else

charge = 10.00;

return charge;

}

Note

#######

The program is updated. Function to calculate parking charge was wrong. Please go through the code

#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <cmath>

using std::cout;
using std::endl;
using std::cin;
using std::setw;

double calculateCharges( double );

int main() {

   double total;
   double car1, car2, car3;

   cout << "Enter Hours for Car1: ";
   cin >> car1;

   cout << "Enter Hours for Car2: ";
   cin >> car2;

   cout << "Enter Hours for Car3: ";
   cin >> car3;

   total=calculateCharges(car1)+calculateCharges(car2)+calculateCharges(car3);

   cout << "Cars" << setw( 13 ) << "Hours" << setw( 13 ) << "Charge($)" << endl;
   cout << "   1" << setw( 13 ) << car1 << setw( 13 ) << calculateCharges(car1)<<endl;

   cout << "   3" << setw( 13 ) << car3 << setw( 13 ) << calculateCharges(car3)<<endl;
   cout<<"\nTotal Parking Charge: "<<setw(8)<<total<<"\n";

   return 0;

}
//function to claculate parking charge was wrong
double calculateCharges( double hours ){

   double charge = 2.00;

  
   if (hours <= 3)
       charge = 2.00;
   else if (hours >= 24)
       charge = 10;
   else
       charge+=((hours-3)*0.5);
   return charge;
