i want to Write a code or script including a FOR LOOP in order to computing the value of d for the following values of x and returning an output variable named ANSWER just as shown : x = 0.10, x = 0.15, and x = 0.20

sorry i forgot to entionb the eqation that we should use for d
  1. d=((34.63/x)-5.162)/2.54
  1. d = [];
  2. for x=[0.1000,0.1500,0.2000]
  3. d=[d ((34.63/x)-5.126)/2.54];
  4. disp ("ANSWER");
  5. end
  6. x=[0.1000 0.1500 0.2000];
  7. fprintf("\t%4g\t\t%4g\n",[x;d])
but when i put this cod into matlab it display like this
for x it shoulkd be 4 decimals .

Try
fprintf("\t%8.4f\t%8.4f\n",[x;d])
using %g strips insignificant trailing zeros

Your code is
d = [];
for x=[0.1000,0.1500,0.2000]
d=[d ((34.63/x)-5.126)/2.54];
disp ("ANSWER");
end
x=[0.1000 0.1500 0.2000];
fprintf("\t%4g\t\t%4g\n",[x;d])
If I understand right, you want
d = [];
x=[0.1000,0.1500,0.2000];
for xi = 1:numel(x)
d=[d ((34.63/x(xi))-5.126)/2.54];
disp ("ANSWER");
fprintf("\t%5.4f\t\t%.4f\n", [x(xi);d(xi)])
end

disp ("ANSWER");
for x = [0.10, 0.15, 0.20]
d = ((34.63 / x) - 5.126) / 2.54;
fprintf("%12g%12g\n", x, d)
end
Or:
x = [0.10, 0.15, 0.20]
d = ((34.63 ./ x) - 5.126) / 2.54; % .7 for elementwise division
fprintf('Answer:\n');
fprintf("%12g%12g\n", [x, d].')
