If v = i + 2j and w = 3i + 6j, then the projection of v onto w is:

OpenStudy (darkbluechocobo):

\[\frac{ 3+12 }{ ||w||^2 }(w)\]

OpenStudy (darkbluechocobo):

\[\frac{ 15 }{ ||w||^2}(w)\]

OpenStudy (darkbluechocobo):

\[\frac{ 15 }{ ||3\sqrt5||^2 }(3,6)\]

OpenStudy (darkbluechocobo):

3*3=9 sqrt5^2=5 9*5=45

OpenStudy (darkbluechocobo):

\[\frac{ 15 }{ 45 }(3,6)\]

OpenStudy (darkbluechocobo):

(1i,2j)
