Define the following variables: matlab

            table_price = $256.95

            chair_price = $89.99

Then change the display format to bank and:

a. Evaluate the cost of two tables and eight chairs.

b. The same as part a., but add 5.5% sale tax.

c. The same as part b., but round the total cost to the nearest dollar.

Solution

%Define the following variables: matlab
% table_price = $256.95
% chair_price = $89.99
clear all;
close all;
table_price = 256.95;
chair_price = 89.99;

%Then change the display format to bank and:
format bank;
%Results Currency format with 2 digits after the decimal point.

%a. Evaluate the cost of two tables and eight chairs.
cost = (2*table_price)+(8*chair_price);
disp(cost);

%b. The same as part a., but add 5.5% sale tax.
costwithtax = cost*(1.055);
disp(costwithtax);

%c. The same as part b., but round the total cost to the nearest dollar.
roundedcostwithtax = round(costwithtax);
disp(roundedcostwithtax);
