You are tasked with writing a simple program to help a cashier sum up the total price of items in a shopping cart, but only count items that cost more than $10. This will help the cashier quickly check high-value purchases.

Follow these steps:

  1. Complete the sumHighValueItems method, which takes an array of integers called prices representing item prices in dollars;
  2. Use a loop to go through each price in the array;
  3. For each price, use a conditional statement to check if the price is greater than 10;
  4. If the price is greater than 10, add it to a running total;
  5. After checking all prices, return the total sum of items costing more than $10.

Example input:

int[] prices = {5, 12, 8, 20, 3, 15}; => 47
