Find the indicated dot product. r = <9, -7, -8>, v = <3, 4, 7>, w = <6, -9, 7> v ⋅ w

OpenStudy (lovelyharmonics):

<18, -36, 49> is this correct? @satellite73

OpenStudy (anonymous):

just \(v\cdot w\) right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[(3)(6)+(4)(-9)+(7)(7)\] is the answer, i will check it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh no your answer cannot be right the dot product is a number, not a vector

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i get \(31\) but you should check my arithmetic, because evidently it is not what it ought to be

OpenStudy (lovelyharmonics):

wait if your suppose to multiply them whouldnt it make sense to get 3 different answers?
