Computing Baggage Charge

A small airline company needs a program to compute baggage charges. Write a program that asks the user to enter the weight of a passenger’s baggage. The program should display the baggage charge, which is calculated as follows. If the baggage weight is 50 pounds or less, the program should display “No Charge”. If the baggage weight is greater than 50 pounds, the baggage charge is $5.00 plus $0.95 for each pound over 50.
