Question

A) Write MATLAB® code to implement the following structure plan steps: Set x equal to a uniform random number between 0 and 1

b)Write MATLAB® code to implement the following structure plan steps: If x is less than 0.33, then set y equal to the square of x
c) Write MATLAB® code to implement the following structure plan steps: Else if x is less than 0.67, then set y equal to the tangent of x
d) Write MATLAB® code to implement the following structure plan steps: Else set y equal to the cosine of x

Answer 1

The MATLAB code uses the rand function to generate a random number x and assigns a value to y based on conditions comparing x with 0.33 and 0.67.

Step-by-step explanation:

To set x equal to a uniform random number between 0 and 1 in MATLAB, you can use the rand function. Depending on the value of x, different values of y will be assigned according to the given conditions.

x = rand();

if x < 0.33
y = x^2;
elseif x < 0.67
y = tan(x);
else
y = cos(x);
end

This code generates a random number x, then checks the value of x and accordingly sets y to either the square of x, the tangent of x, or the cosine of x.
