(c) How many months, and on which months, was the precipitation in Boston lower than the precipitation in Seattle?

Explanation / Answer

Hi, As per chegg Rules Answering for Question 8 alone:

8.

BOS=[2.67 1.00 1.21 3.09 3.43 4.71 3.88 3.08 4.10 2.62 1.01 5.93];

SEA=[6.83 3.63 7.20 2.68 2.05 2.96 1.04 0.00 0.03 6.71 8.28 6.85];

fprintf('Total precipitation of the year for Boston is: %8.2f ', sum(BOS));

fprintf('Monthly average precipitation for Boston is: %8.2f ', mean(BOS));

fprintf('Total precipitation of the year for Boston is: %8.2f ', sum(SEA));

fprintf('Monthly average precipitation for Boston is: %8.2f ', mean(SEA));

temp = mean(BOS) < BOS;

count = sum(temp);

fprintf('The number of months with precipitation above the average precipitation in Boston is: %i ', count);

temp = mean(SEA) < SEA;

count = sum(temp);

fprintf('The number of months with precipitation above the average precipitation in Seattle is: %i ', count);

months = BOS < SEA;

display (find(months == 1));

display(' Monthly Precipitation');

display('Boston Seattle');

i = 1;

while i <= 12

fprintf('%.2f %.2f ', BOS(i), SEA(i));

i = i + 1;

end
