# Vector Operations: Dot Products

## Problem Statement
Compute \( \mathbf{u} \cdot \mathbf{u} \), \( \mathbf{v} \cdot \mathbf{u} \), and \( \frac{\mathbf{v} \cdot \mathbf{u}}{\mathbf{u} \cdot \mathbf{u}} \) using the vectors \( \mathbf{u} = \begin{bmatrix} -2 \\ 4 \end{bmatrix} \) and \( \mathbf{v} = \begin{bmatrix} 5 \\ 7 \end{bmatrix} \).

### Given:
\[ \mathbf{u} = \begin{bmatrix} -2 \\ 4 \end{bmatrix} \]
\[ \mathbf{v} = \begin{bmatrix} 5 \\ 7 \end{bmatrix} \]

### Computations:

1. **Compute \( \mathbf{u} \cdot \mathbf{u} \):**

\[ \mathbf{u} \cdot \mathbf{u} = -20 \]

Simplify your answer.

2. **Compute \( \mathbf{v} \cdot \mathbf{u} \):**

\[ \mathbf{v} \cdot \mathbf{u} = \_\_\_\_ \]

Simplify your answer.

3. **Compute \( \frac{\mathbf{v} \cdot \mathbf{u}}{\mathbf{u} \cdot \mathbf{u}} \):**

\[ \frac{\mathbf{v} \cdot \mathbf{u}}{\mathbf{u} \cdot \mathbf{u}} = \_\_\_\_ \]

Type an integer or a simplified fraction.

### Answer Steps:
* Calculate the dot product \( \mathbf{u} \cdot \mathbf{u} \):
  
  \[
  \mathbf{u} \cdot \mathbf{u} = (-2)(-2) + (4)(4) = 4 + 16 = 20
  \]

* Calculate the dot product \( \mathbf{v} \cdot \mathbf{u} \):

  \[
  \mathbf{v} \cdot \mathbf{u} = (5)(-2) + (7)(4) = -10 + 28 = 18
  \]

* Calculate
