Question

I need a skeleton of a MatLab code that will find the following:

1. Write a MATLAB function that takes the geometry of each beam and returns its
corresponding moment of inertia.

2. Write a MATLAB function which determines the deflection of a beam based at distance x
from the clamped end for applied load P based on the following equations.

where y is the deflection of the beam, L the length of the beam, a is the applied load distance
from the fixed end, E modulus of Elasticity, I the moment of inertia, and P the applied load at the
free end. Your function should get five inputs namely, modulus of elasticity, moment of inertia, applied
load, load distance from the clamped end and the desired deflection location and returns the
deflection. **Note that as there are two equations for beam deflection, your code should have an if condition
statement to select the proper equation depending on the selected x value.**

Thank you! The most important part that I need is the if condition statement to select the proper equation depending on the selected x value.
