Question
### Vectors: Given Vectors

We are provided with the following vectors:
\[
\mathbf{u} = \langle -3, -1, 4 \rangle 
\]
and 
\[
\mathbf{v} = \langle -2, 3, 2 \rangle 
\]

#### Add/Subtract/Scalar Multiplication
Perform operations such as addition, subtraction, and scalar multiplication on the given vectors. Example problem:
- Find \( 2\mathbf{u} - \mathbf{v} \)

#### Length/Magnitude
Calculate the magnitude or length of each vector to determine their sizes. Example problem:
- Is \( \mathbf{u} \) more than 20% shorter than \( \mathbf{v} \)?

#### Dot Product
Compute the dot product of the vectors to understand their scalar projection:
- Find \( \mathbf{u} \cdot \mathbf{v} \)

#### Cross Product
Determine the cross product to find a vector that is perpendicular to both \( \mathbf{u} \) and \( \mathbf{v} \):
- Find \( \mathbf{u} \times \mathbf{v}\)
