Chapter 18.3, Problem 13CC

Assume a user has responded to the question "Do you want to continue (Yes or No)?" and the response has been stored in usorRcsp.

Write a short section of MATLAB code (a single line if possible) that will return a value of TRUE in the variable cont if the user either types the word "yes" (with any capitalization) or the user types the single letter "y" (upper or lowercase).

I need help with the purple line the line that you see one the graph on the picture needs to be on the graph. Use this code to add the purple line and make sure it’s crossing the orange line. Please make sure the lines are positioned the same way it is shown on the picture with the graph. Use this code on MATLAB and add the purple line. % Sample data for Diesel and Petrol cars carPosition = linspace(1, 60, 50); % Assumed positions of cars % Use the 'seed' function instead of 'rng' seed = 50; % Define your seed here rand('seed',seed); % Assumed CO2 emissions for Diesel and Petrol CO2Diesel = 25 + 5*cos(carPosition/60*2*pi) + randn(1, 50)*5; % Random data for Diesel CO2Petrol = 20 + 5*sin(carPosition/60*2*pi) + randn(1, 50)*5; % Random data for Petrol % Fit polynomial curves with a reduced degree of 2 pDiesel = polyfit(carPosition, CO2Diesel, 2); pPetrol = polyfit(carPosition, CO2Petrol, 2); % Generate points for best fit lines fitDiesel = polyval(pDiesel, carPosition);…
Could you please fix my code it’s supposed to look like the graph that’s on the picture. But the lines do not cross eachother at the beginning. Could you make the lines look like the lines on the graph? Use this code in MATLAB and fix it. % Sample data for Diesel and Petrol cars carPosition = linspace(1, 60, 50); % Assumed positions of cars % Define your seed here seed = 50; rand('seed',seed); % Set the seed for reproducibility % Assumed CO2 emissions for Diesel and Petrol CO2Diesel = 25 + 5*cos(carPosition/60*2*pi) + randn(1, 50)*5; % Random data for Diesel CO2Petrol = 20 + 5*sin(carPosition/60*2*pi) + randn(1, 50)*5; % Random data for Petrol % Fit polynomial curves with a reduced degree of 2 pDiesel = polyfit(carPosition, CO2Diesel, 2); pPetrol = polyfit(carPosition, CO2Petrol, 2); % Generate points for best fit lines fitDiesel = polyval(pDiesel, carPosition); fitPetrol = polyval(pPetrol, carPosition); % Plotting the data figure; hold on; % Plot Diesel best fit line…
Hi I need help to make the line change into a different color, I half of the line to be orange and I need the other half of the line towards the end to be purple as shown in the picture. Also I need there be a box saying Diesel, petrol, diesel best fit, petrol best fit. This part is also shown in the graph. Please use this code and fix it in MATLAB: % Sample data for Diesel and Petrol cars carPosition = linspace(1, 60, 50); % Assumed positions of cars % Fix the random seed for reproducibility rng(50); % Assumed positions of cars CO2Diesel = 25 + 5*cos(carPosition/60*2*pi) + randn(1, 50)*5; % Random data for Diesel CO2Petrol = 20 + 5*sin(carPosition/60*2*pi) + randn(1, 50)*5; % Random data for Petrol % Fit polynomial curves pDiesel = polyfit(carPosition, CO2Diesel, 3); pPetrol = polyfit(carPosition, CO2Petrol, 3); % Generate points for best fit lines fitDiesel = polyval(pDiesel, carPosition); fitPetrol = polyval(pPetrol, carPosition); % Combine the best fit lines combinedFit =…
