Nadia's mother plans to bake cupcakes inside cone-shaped ice cream cones. Each cone is 9 cm high and has a radius of 3 cm.
Each cone will hold 271
cubic centimeters of cake batter.
cubic centimeters more
Sixteen of the cone-shaped cupcakes will be chocolate cake and ten will be yellow cake. Nadia's mother will need 270n
chocolate batter than yellow cake batter to fill the cones.

the value of v.w= -12.

step-by-step explanation:

we are given three vector r,v and w as:

r = < 5, -5, -2> ; v = < 2, -8, -8> ; w = < -2, 6, -5>

we know that r,v and w could also be represented as:

r=5i-5j-2k

v=2i-8j-8k

and w= -2i+6j-5k

where i,j and k are the unit vectors of x,y and z-axis respectively.

also we know that it has the following property:

i.i=1 ; j.j=1; k.k=1

and i.=j.i=i.k=k.i=j.k=k.j=0

i.e. when we multiply two vectors or we find it's dot product we need to only multiply the components of x coordinates with each other; y with each other and z with each other.

hence, v.w= (2i-8j- -2i+6j-5k)

                  = 2×(-2)+(-8)×(6)+(-8)×(-5)

                  = -4-48+40

                  = -12

hence, v.w= -12
