Question 1071024
<pre><font size=5>

To find the projection of <b>u</b> onto <b>v</b>,
which is denoted:

proj<sub>v</sub><b>u</b> ,

1.  Get their dot product:  <b>u•v</b> 

2.  Divide that by &#8741;<b>v</b>&#8741;<sup>2</sup>

3.  Multiply by <b>v</b>

-------------------------  

1.  Get their dot product:

<-1,7>•<6,4> = (-1)(6)+(7)(4) = -6+28 = 22

2.  Calculate &#8741;<b>v</b>&#8741;<sup>2</sup> = &#8741;<6,4>&#8741;<sup>2</sup> = 6<sup>2</sup>+4<sup>2</sup> = 36+16 = 52

Divide 22 by 52  {{{22/52=11/26}}}

3.  Multiply by <b>v</b>.  {{{11/26}}}<6,4> = <{{{33/13}}},{{{22/13}}}> 

Choice A)
