Let u=(:5,-12:) and c=-3. What is ||cu|| ? a)51 b)-39 c)21 d)39

Calculate cu by multiplication: Calculate the vector cu by multiplying each component of u by c. u = (5, -12) c = -3 cu = (-3*5, -3*(-12)) cu = (-15, 36)Find magnitude of cu: Find the magnitude of the vector cu. Magnitude formula: ||v|| = sqrt(x^2 + y^2) where v = (x, y) cu = (-15, 36) ||cu|| = sqrt((-15)^2 + 36^2) ||cu|| = sqrt(225 + 1296) ||cu|| = sqrt(1521) ||cu|| = 39

Calculate cu by multiplication: Calculate the vector $cu$ by multiplying each component of $u$ by $c$ . $u = (5, -12)$ $c = -3$ $cu = (-3 \times 5, -3 \times (-12))$ $cu = (-15, 36)$
Find magnitude of cu: Find the magnitude of the vector $cu$ . $\newline$ Magnitude formula: $||v|| = \sqrt{x^2 + y^2}$ where $v = (x, y)$ $\newline$ cu = ( $-15$ , $36$ ) $\newline$ $||cu|| = \sqrt{(-15)^2 + 36^2}$ $\newline$ $||cu|| = \sqrt{225 + 1296}$ $\newline$ $||cu|| = \sqrt{1521}$ $\newline$ ||cu|| = \(39
