Answer:

proj_uw=6.2i-4.2j

Step-by-step explanation:

The projection of a vector v onto a vector u is defined as the projection of the vector v on the line that contains the vector u. It can be calculated  using the following formula:

proj_uv=\frac{u\cdot v}{||u||^2} u

Where:

u\cdot v

Is the dot product between u and v which is given by:

u\cdot v= $$\sum_{i=1}^{n} u_iv_i= u_1v_1+u_2v_2+...+u_nv_n$$

and:

||u||

Is the magnitude of vector which can be calculated as follows:

||u||=\sqrt{u_1^2+u_2^2+...+u_n^2}

In this sense, the projection of vector w onto vector u is:

proj_uw=\frac{u\cdot w}{||u||^2} u

Where the dot product between u and w is:

u\cdot w =(9*19)+(-6*15)=171-90=81

And the magnitude of u is:

||u||=\sqrt{9^2+(-6)^2} = 3 \sqrt{13}

Thus:

proj_uw=\frac{u\cdot w}{||u||^2} u=\frac{81}{117} \langle9,-6\rangle=\langle6.23,-4.15\rangle\approx6.2i-4.2j
