Rideshare companies like Uber or Lyft track the x,y coordinates of drivers and customers on a map. If a customer requests a ride, the company's app estimates the minutes until the nearest driver can arrive. Write a method that, given the x and y coordinates of a customer and the three nearest drivers, returns the estimated pickup time. Assume drivers can only drive in the x or y directions (not diagonal), and each mile takes 3.5 minutes to drive. All values are doubles; the coordinates of the user and of the drivers are stored as arrays of length 2. 289222.1780078.qx3zqy7

Answer:

The program in Java is as follows:

import java.util.*;

public class Main{

 public static void main (String[]args){

   Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);

   double user[] = new double[2];    double dr1[] = new double[2];

   double dr2[] = new double[2];    double dr3[] = new double[2];    

   System.out.print("Enter user coordinates: ");

   for(int i =0;i<2;i++){        user[i] = input.nextDouble();    }

   System.out.print("Enter driver 1 coordinates: ");

   for(int i =0;i<2;i++){        dr1[i] = input.nextDouble();    }

   System.out.print("Enter driver 2 coordinates: ");

   for(int i =0;i<2;i++){        dr2[i] = input.nextDouble();    }

   System.out.print("Enter driver 3 coordinates: ");

   for(int i =0;i<2;i++){        dr3[i] = input.nextDouble();    }

   double dr1dist = Math.abs(user[0] - dr1[0]) + Math.abs(user[1] - dr1[1]);

   double dr2dist = Math.abs(user[0] - dr2[0]) + Math.abs(user[1] - dr2[1]);

   double dr3dist = Math.abs(user[0] - dr3[0]) + Math.abs(user[1] - dr3[1]);

   System.out.println("Estimated pickup time of driver 1 "+(3.5 * dr1dist)+" minutes");

   System.out.println("Estimated pickup time of driver 2 "+(3.5 * dr2dist)+" minutes");

   System.out.println("Estimated pickup time of driver 3 "+(3.5 * dr3dist)+" minutes");

 }

}

Explanation:

The following array declarations are for the customer and the three drivers

   double user[] = new double[2];    double dr1[] = new double[2];

   double dr2[] = new double[2];    double dr3[] = new double[2];    

This prompts the user for the customer's coordinates

   System.out.print("Enter user coordinates: ");

This gets the customer's coordinate

   for(int i =0;i<2;i++){        user[i] = input.nextDouble();    }

This prompts the user for the driver 1 coordinates

   System.out.print("Enter driver 1 coordinates: ");

This gets the driver 1's coordinate

   for(int i =0;i<2;i++){        dr1[i] = input.nextDouble();    }

This prompts the user for the driver 2 coordinates

   System.out.print("Enter driver 2 coordinates: ");

This gets the driver 2's coordinate

   for(int i =0;i<2;i++){        dr2[i] = input.nextDouble();    }

This prompts the user for the driver 3 coordinates

   System.out.print("Enter driver 3 coordinates: ");

This gets the driver 3's coordinate

   for(int i =0;i<2;i++){        dr3[i] = input.nextDouble();    }

This calculates the distance between driver 1 and the customer

   double dr1dist = Math.abs(user[0] - dr1[0]) + Math.abs(user[1] - dr1[1]);

This calculates the distance between driver 2 and the customer

   double dr2dist = Math.abs(user[0] - dr2[0]) + Math.abs(user[1] - dr2[1]);

This calculates the distance between driver 3 and the customer

   double dr3dist = Math.abs(user[0] - dr3[0]) + Math.abs(user[1] - dr3[1]);

The following print statements print the estimated pickup time of each driver

  System.out.println("Estimated pickup time of driver 1 "+(3.5 * dr1dist)+" minutes");

   System.out.println("Estimated pickup time of driver 2 "+(3.5 * dr2dist)+" minutes");

   System.out.println("Estimated pickup time of driver 3 "+(3.5 * dr3dist)+" minutes");
