#### Problem Statement
4. Given the two vectors shown in the figure, calculate:
a) \(2.00(\vec{B} \cdot \vec{C})\)
b) \(-5.00(\vec{B} \times \vec{C})\)
**Note:** There are no units, but be careful about significant figures. If the answer is a vector, write it as a magnitude and direction (*in words or with a unit vector*).

#### Vector Diagram Description
The diagram depicts two vectors in relation to the xy-coordinate system.
- **Vector \(\vec{B}\):**
- Magnitude: 9.35 units
- Direction: 53.1° from the positive x-axis in the counterclockwise direction.
- **Vector \(\vec{C}\):**
- Magnitude: 7.19 units
- Aligned with the positive x-axis.
The diagram includes axes labeled 'x' and 'y' with \(\vec{B}\) oriented upwards and to the left, and \(\vec{C}\) directed along the positive x-axis.
