Answer

$ (i) 54$ $ (ii) 0$ $ (iii) \begin{bmatrix} 3 & 5 & 1\\ -6 & -10 & -2\\ 21 & 35 & 7 \end{bmatrix}$

Work Step by Step

$(i) \begin{bmatrix} 1 & -2 & 7 \end{bmatrix} \begin{bmatrix} 1\\ -2\\ 7 \end{bmatrix}$ $= 1 \cdot1 + (-2) \cdot(-2) + 7 \cdot7$ $= 54$ $(ii) \begin{bmatrix} 1 & -2 & 7 \end{bmatrix} \begin{bmatrix} 3\\ 5\\ 1 \end{bmatrix}$ $= 1 \cdot3 + (-2) \cdot5+ 7 \cdot1$ $= 3 - 10 + 7$ $= 0$ $(iii) \begin{bmatrix} 1 & -2 & 7 \end{bmatrix} \begin{bmatrix} 3\\ 5\\ 1 \end{bmatrix}$ $= \begin{bmatrix} 1 \cdot3 & 1 \cdot5 & 1 \cdot1\\ (-2) \cdot3 & (-2) \cdot5 & (-2)\cdot1\\ 7 \cdot3 & 7 \cdot5 & 7 \cdot1 \end{bmatrix}$ $= \begin{bmatrix} 3 & 5 & 1\\ -6 & -10 & -2\\ 21 & 35 & 7 \end{bmatrix}$
