I believe I could help but this sounds like homework. If you need help understanding something I'll help but this isn't the right place for others to do your homework for you.

Neema,
If the question is "where do I start" then this is the basic structure of a java application:
Create a file named Pay.java that sits in the directory that you have your Path and Classpath pointed to.
In the file create a class

compile the code by typing at the prompt
>javac Pay.java
run the code by typing
>java Pay Joe 39 12
etc.
