Question

Write a user-defined MATLAB function, with two input and two output arguments that determines the height in centimeters (cm) and mass in kilograms (kg)of a person from his height in inches (in.) and weight in pounds (lb).

(a) Determine in SI units the height and mass of a 5 ft.15 in. person who weight 180 lb.

(b) Determine your own height and weight in SI units.

Answer 1

===============================================================

Matlab Script to copy:

% Matlab script to convert given mesurements into SI units

%(a) height and mass of a 5 ft.15 in. person who weight 180 lb in SI units

feetToInches = 5 * 12; % Converting feets to inches

height = feetToInches + 15; % Total height in inches

mass = 180; % Mass in pounds(lb)

[heightInCm, weightInKg] = measuresInSI(height, mass);

disp("Output (a):")

fprintf("Height in centimeters: %.2f", heightInCm)

fprintf("Weight in kilograms: %.2f", weightInKg)

%(b) My own height and weight in SI units

feetToInches = 5 * 12; % Converting feets to inches

height = feetToInches + 10; % Total height in inches

mass = 135; % Mass in pounds(lb)

[heightInCm, weightInKg] = measuresInSI(height, mass);

disp("Output (b):")

fprintf("Height in centimeters: %.2f", heightInCm)

fprintf("Weight in kilograms: %.2f", weightInKg)

function [height, weight] = measuresInSI(inches, pounds)

height = inches * 2.54; % 1 inch = 2.54 centimeters

weight = pounds * 0.45359237; % 1 pound(lb) = 0.45359237 kg

end
