Answer

a). $-26$ b). $52$ c). $52$ d). $<78,-52>$ e). $-52$

Work Step by Step

$\mathbf{u}=<6,-4>$ and $\mathbf{v}=$ a). $\mathbf{u}\cdot\mathbf{v}=6\times(-3)+(-4)\times2=-18+-8=-26$ b). $\mathbf{u}\cdot\mathbf{u}=6\times6+-4\times-4=52$ c). $\|\mathbf{u}\|^2= \mathbf{u}\cdot\mathbf{u}=52$ d). $(\mathbf{u}\cdot\mathbf{v})\mathbf{v}=-26\mathbf{v}=<78,-52>$ e). $\mathbf{u}\cdot(2\mathbf{v})=<6,-4>\cdot=-36-16=-52$
