Expert Solution
Step 1: Finding the values

(a) Finding the sum

uv=u+v+11-6=1+-6+11-6=-4

(b) Finding the scalar multiple

au=au+a-191=91+9-191=17

(c) Finding the zero vector (0V)

Let v' be the zero vector

uv'=u          u+v'+1=u-u+u+v'+1=-u+u                 v'+1=0            v'+1-1=0-1                         v'=-1

Hence 0V=-1

(d) Finding the additive inverse

Let u' be the additive inverse

uu'=0u+u'+1=0             u'=1-u

Hence the additive inverse is 1-u
