To solve the problem, we need to find the vector \(\vec{a} = x \hat{i} + y \hat{j} + z \hat{k}\) given the dot products with three other vectors. We will set up equations based on the given dot products and solve for \(x\), \(y\), and \(z\). ### Step 1: Set up the equations based on the dot products 1. The first vector is \(3 \hat{i} - 5 \hat{k}\) and the dot product with \(\vec{a}\) is given as \(-1\): \[ \vec{a} \cdot (3 \hat{i} - 5 \hat{k}) = -1 \] ...
