Describe the information found in a VIN.

The information found in a VIN.
Explanation of Solution
Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) is present on the lower side/corner of the driver side of the windshield. It tells us about the kind of vehicle we are working on. VIN contains a character code of seventeen digits. This code tells about the manufacturers, place of manufacture and resembles the model number. Nowadays, most vehicles contain a scan code which is present just below the VIN.
It tells about the plant where a vehicle has been manufactured and the body style.
For example, 1G1YY36U665112555.
Here, the first character tells about the country where it has been manufactured.
For 1 or 4 − USA
2 − Canada
3- Mexico
J − Japan
K − Korea
S − England
W − Germany
The second character tells about the manufacturer and the tenth character tells about the model year.

I am trying to solve this question. Based on the Mars powered landing scenariosolve Eq. (14) via convex programming. Report the consumed fuel, and discuss the results with relevant plots. I am using the following MATLAB code and getting an error. I tried to fix the error and I get another one saying something about log and exp not being convex. Can you help fix my code and make sure it works. The error is CVX Warning: Models involving "log" or other functions in the log, exp, and entropy family are solved using an experimental successive approximation method. This method is slower and less reliable than the method CVX employs for other models. Please see the section of the user's guide entitled The successive approximation method for more details about the approach, and for instructions on how to suppress this warning message in the future.Error using .* (line 173)Disciplined convex programming error: Cannot perform the operation:…arrow_forward
