Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

If A = 6i + 8j and B = 2i + 3j, what is the value of A · B?
  • Step 1: Identify the components of vector A. A = 6i + 8j means A has a component of 6 in the i direction and 8 in the j direction.
  • Step 2: Identify the components of vector B. B = 2i + 3j means B has a component of 2 in the i direction and 3 in the j direction.
  • Step 3: Multiply the i components of A and B together. This is 6 (from A) times 2 (from B), which equals 12.
  • Step 4: Multiply the j components of A and B together. This is 8 (from A) times 3 (from B), which equals 24.
  • Step 5: Add the results from Step 3 and Step 4 together. This is 12 + 24, which equals 36.
  • Step 6: The final result, A · B, is 36.
