Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

For vectors A = (3, -2, 1) and B = (1, 4, -2), find A · B.
  • Step 1: Identify the components of vector A, which are (3, -2, 1).
  • Step 2: Identify the components of vector B, which are (1, 4, -2).
  • Step 3: Multiply the first components of A and B: 3 * 1 = 3.
  • Step 4: Multiply the second components of A and B: -2 * 4 = -8.
  • Step 5: Multiply the third components of A and B: 1 * -2 = -2.
  • Step 6: Add the results from Steps 3, 4, and 5 together: 3 + (-8) + (-2).
  • Step 7: Calculate the sum: 3 - 8 = -5, then -5 - 2 = -7.
  • Step 8: The final result of A · B is -7.
