Addition of vectors

Algebra Level 1

For the three vectors

a = ( 2 , 1 , 0 ) , b = ( 4 , 2 , 5 ) , c = ( 0 , 0 , 3 ) , a = (2, -1, 0), b = (-4, 2, 5), c = (0, 0, 3),

what is 6 a 4 b + 2 c ? 6a - 4b + 2c?

( 0 , 8 , 9 ) (0, -8, 9) ( 3 , 21 , 6 ) (3, -21, -6) ( 11 , 42 , 9 ) (11, 42, -9) ( 28 , 14 , 14 ) (28, -14, -14)

6 * (2, -1, 0) - 4 * ( -4, 2, 5) + 2 * (0, 0, 3) = (12, -6, 0) + (16, -8, -20) + (0, 0, 6) = (28, -14, -14)

the answer is 28, -14, -14 !!!!!!! Hey I am hritik kaushik from radhika appts! flat no.73

6 * (2, -1, 0) - 4 * ( -4, 2, 5) + 2 * (0, 0, 3) = (12, -6, 0) + (16, -8, -20) + (0, 0, 6) = (28, -14, -14)

During addition of vectors the components get added. So add them accordingly after multiplying

We have to take one value for each variable at a time.

a = ( 2 , 1 , 0 ) , b = ( 4 , 2 , 5 ) , c = ( 0 , 0 , 3 ) a=(2,-1,0), b=(-4,2,5), c=(0,0,3)

So, the first value of 6 a 4 b + 2 c 6a-4b+2c is:

6 a 4 b + 2 c = 6 × 2 4 × ( 4 ) + 2 × 0 6a-4b+2c=6\times2-4\times(-4)+2\times0

6 a 4 b + 2 c = 12 + 16 + 0 6a-4b+2c=12+16+0

6 a 4 b + 2 c = 28 6a-4b+2c=28

Second value of 6 a 4 b + 2 c 6a-4b+2c is:

6 a 4 b + 2 c = 6 × ( 1 ) 4 × 2 + 2 × 0 6a-4b+2c=6\times(-1)-4\times2+2\times0

6 a 4 b + 2 c = 6 8 + 0 6a-4b+2c=-6-8+0

6 a 4 b + 2 c = 14 6a-4b+2c=-14

Third value of 6 a 4 b + 2 c 6a-4b+2c is:

6 a 4 b + 2 c = 6 × 0 4 × 5 + 2 × 3 6a-4b+2c=6\times0-4\times5+2\times3

6 a 4 b + 2 c = 0 20 + 6 6a-4b+2c=0-20+6

6 a 4 b + 2 c = 14 6a-4b+2c=-14

Thus, the answer is: 6 a 4 b + 2 c = ( 28 , 14 , 14 ) 6a-4b+2c=\boxed{(28,-14,-14)}
