mathlab solution

1) The electricity accounts of residents in a very small town are calculated as follows: if 500 units or less are used the cost is 2 cents per unit; if more than 500 units are used, the cost is $10 for the first 500 units, and then 5 cents for every unit in excess of 500; Write a program which asks you to enter the number of units and then calculates the cost of electricity for this unit. Run your m-file for the number of units of 300, 500 and 700. (Put the m-file and the answers to your report.)
