Due Date:

The BEGINNING of class on Tuesday June 11

Note that late homeworks will NOT be accepted.

Objectives:

• To practice solving problems in both a specific and a generic manner
• To practice writing basic pseudocode for the solution of a problem

Assignment:

1. First solve each of the two homework problems shown below. (25 points each, so make sure you show your work, no matter how simple you think it is)

2. Then write an algorithm for each of these two problems in pseudocode.(25 points each)
   1) Ms. Shoe kept 2 meatballs for herself, then divided the others equally among her 14 children. If each child got 5 meatballs, how many did Ms. Shoe have to begin with ?

   Tips about problem # 1 :

   • Your algorithm should allow Ms. Shoe to keep any number of meatballs for herself. This amount should be specified by the user.
   • The user should also specify the number of children
   • The user should also specify the number of meatballs per child.

   2) Ms. Match went to a store, spent half of her money and then $ 10 more. She went to a second store, spent half the money she had left and then $ 10 more. She then had no money left. How much money did Ms. Match have when she started out ?

   Tips about problem # 2 :

   • Ms. Match must always have no money left at the end.
   • The user should specify the number of stores.
   • The user should specify the "amount more" that Ms. Match spends at each store, but it will be the same amount at every store.
