The below should do it.
x = str2double(inputdlg('number of items purchased:'))
% asks for the number of items purchased, and converts it from string to a double
shipping(x)
%runs the below function with the number of items entered above as input
function price = shipping(x) %create a function, shipping, which takes one input, and outputs the price.
if x == 1
price = 3950.75; %if one item is purchased, the price is just 3950.75
else if x == 0
price = 0; %if no items are purchased, the price is 0.
else if x > 1
price = 3950.75 + (825.50 * (x-1)); %if more than one item is purchased, the price is 3950.75 for the first item, and 825.50 for the rest of the items, i.e. (x - 1)
end
end
end
end

We discourage people from providing complete homework solutions, especially when the person asking has not shown that they have tried anything.
