Use the inner product <p,q>=p(-3)q(-3)+p(0)q(0)+p(2)q(2) in P3 to find the orthogonal projection of p(x)=2x^2+4x+1 onto the line L spanned by q(x)=4x^2-6x-8.

I keep on getting (246/2196)(4x^2-6x-8) but apparently that is wrong...

rewrite it in LATEX so we can actually read it.
See the sticky if you have no idea what I'm talking about.

what is p3. Orthogonal projection of a on b, is (although kinda sleepy and might be wrong) given by a-\langle a,b\rangle \langle b,b \rangle b. \langle a,b\rangle your inner product.

P3 is the vector space in which this problem is in. According to what I researched, orthogonal proj.= (<a,b>/<b,b>)b

Sorry doing extra credit right now. I'll read the sticky and get back to you guys later tonight. thanks
