Question

Let V = (8, -4) and W = (-4,2).

Answer 1

The second value in a set of parenthesis is the y value, so B is true.

If you multiplied each value of W by -2, you would get the values for V, so C is also true.

The answer is B and C.

Answer 2

Answer:

Option B and C are correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the vectors V = (8, -4) and W = (-4,2)

we have to check the following options.

Option A: V x W = 40

$A\times B=\begin{vmatrix}i&j&k\\8&-4&0\\-4&2&0\end{vmatrix}=0i+0j+k(16-16)=0i+0j+0k$

Hence, not true

Option B: The y-component of W is 2

W = (-4,2)

x-component is -4

y-component is 2

Hence, true

Option C:  V = -2W

W=(-4, 2)

V=-2(-4,2)=(8,-4)

which is true

Option D: The x-component of V is 4

V = (8,-4)

x-component is 8

y-component is -4

which is not true.

hence, the option B and C are correct.
