Answer:
[tex]a \cdot b = 1[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex] a = 5i + 7j [/tex]
[tex] b = -4i + 3j [/tex]
[tex] a = a_xi + a_yj [/tex]
[tex]b = b_xi + b_yj[/tex]
[tex] a \cdot b = a_xb_x + a_yb_y [/tex]
[tex] a \cdot b = (5)(-4) + (7)(3) [/tex]
[tex] a \cdot b = -20 + 21 [/tex]
[tex]a \cdot b = 1[/tex]
Answer:
[tex]\boxed{-20i^2 -13ij+21j^2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\sf Plug \ in \ the \ values.[/tex]
[tex](5i+7j) \cdot (-4i+3j)[/tex]
[tex]\sf Expand \ brackets.[/tex]
[tex]5i(-4i+3j)+7j(-4i+3j)[/tex]
[tex]-20i^2 +15ij+-28ij +21j^2[/tex]
[tex]\sf Combine \ like \ terms.[/tex]
[tex]-20i^2 -13ij+21j^2[/tex]
