Add to Float Input

Write a program that reads a float number, adds 5.5 to it, and displays the result with 2 decimal places.

Steps:
1. Import java.util.Scanner at the top
2. Create a Scanner object: Scanner scanner = new Scanner(System.in);
3. Use scanner.nextFloat() to read the float
4. Add 5.5 to it
5. Use printf with %n or \n to display with 2 decimal places and a newline:
   System.out.printf("The result is: %.2f%n", result);

Important: The output MUST end with a newline character (%n in printf or \n in print/println).

⚠️ IMPORTANT - AUTO-INPUT MODE:
This question uses automated input testing. When you run your code, the input stream will AUTOMATICALLY contain: '10.25\n'

DO NOT wait for manual keyboard input - Scanner will read from the pre-filled buffer stream immediately. Your program should use Scanner methods like nextInt(), nextDouble(), or nextLine() to read these values directly.

Think of it like Eclipse/VS Code but with the input already typed in and waiting for your Scanner to read it.

Expected Output:

The result is: 15.75

= newline. The output ends with a newline — print one after the last line.
