Question

Let a, b, c and y be the three dimensional vectors a = 5j + 3k b = -i + 8j + 7k c = i + 7j y = 8i + 8j Perform the following operations on these vectors: I) c · a + a · y = II) (a · b) a = III) ((c · c) a) · a = Note: You can earn partial credit on this problem.

          Let a, b, c and y be the three dimensional vectors
a = 5j + 3k
b = -i + 8j + 7k
c = i + 7j
y = 8i + 8j

Perform the following operations on these vectors:

I) c · a + a · y =
II) (a · b) a =
III) ((c · c) a) · a =
