function

2. Write a function that calculates and returns the level of alcohol concentration in the blood for a person who has been drinking (BAC). There are several ways to calculate this value, but in this exercise the following formula will be used.

BAC = A/r* - 0.015*t + 0.0165

where A is the alcohol consumed, w is the mass, t time elapsed from the first drink (in hours) r constant represent the fraction of the body mass in which alcohol could be present 0.68 for men, 0.55 for women. Note that R is different for men and women, so you need an IF. to ask if the persons sex is 'F' (feminine) or 'M' (masculine) for. Assign the value to the variable R to be used in the formula: 0.55 0r 0.68 respectively.
This function is intended to calculate the BAC only, si you need to be provided (you get) the values of a, W, T and the sex of the person who has been drinking ('F' or 'M') The sex variable is CHAR.

Post what you have already programmed doing your homework for you we won't do.

There’s no ‘w’ in the above formula.

I’ve pointed out some issues in your code by comments. I think once they are solved, the rest should come easily.

#include <stdio.h>  // C header. You'd better use the corresponding C++ header.
#include <iostream>
#include <cmath>
#include <iomanip>

using namespace std; // For expert only. You'd better avoid this.

int main()

{
    double lbs, nb, ca, t, A, w;    // It is usually *very* better not to declare
    char sexo;                      // any variable far from where we use them

    cout << " Programa para determinar riesgos en caso de\n"
         << " conducir despues de haber consumido alcohol\n\n";

    cout << " Entre el peso de la persona en libras: ";
    cin >> lbs;

    while(lbs <= 0.0)
    {
        cout << "Peso invalido. Re-entre.";
        cin >> lbs;
    }

    cout << " Entre el numero de bebidas consumidas: ";
    cin >> nb;

    while(nb <= 0.0)
    {
        cout << " Numero de bebidas consumidas invalido. Re-entre. ";
        cin >> nb;
    }

    cout << " Entre el contenido de alcohol de una bebida en gramos: ";
    cin >> ca;

    while(ca <= 0.0)
    {
        cout << " Contenido de alcohol invalido. Re-entre.";
        cin >> ca;
    }

    cout << " Entre el tiempo en horas que tardo en consumir las bebidas: ";
    cin >> t;

    while(t <= 0.0)
    {
        cout << " Tiempo invalido. Re-entre.";
        cin >> t;
    }

    cout << " Entre el sexo de la persona (F = Femenino, M = Masculino): ";
    cin >> sexo;    // You neglect this variable from now on

    A = nb*ca; // Cantidad de alcohol consumido por una persona.
    w = (10 / 2.2046) * lbs;    // Conversion de libras a masa corporal en 
                                // hectogramos. <-- It's correct, but...
                                // 1 pound = 4.5359237, so w = lbs * 4.5359237
    cout <<"\n\n\ RESULTADOS\n\n";
    
    // Here you're going to use the variable 'BAC', but you haven't even
    // declared BAC, let alone having given it a proper value:
    cout<<"\n\nPorciento de concentracion de alcohol en la sangre: "<< BAC<< "%";

    if(BAC > 0.01){
        if(BAC < 0.05){
            cout << "\n===>Dificilmente el conductor se encuentra dentro de "
                    "lo ilegal (pero podria complicar otras infracciones de "
                    "transito).\n";
        }
    }

        if(BAC < 0.1){
            cout << "\n===>EL conductor podria ser sujeto a arresto (a "

    // Here you define a function inside another function.
    // Move CAS() outside main().
    // CAS should *not* return void: it should return double.
    // You need a variable in main() which receives it's returning value when
    // you invoke it.
    void CAS(double BAC);
