Vectors Notation Meaning I have a question that asks for vectors a b and c, to calculate:
$\alpha a + \beta b + \gamma c$
I have no idea what this notation means: $\alpha$
If someone could clarify, that'd be awesome

$\alpha$, $\beta$, and $\gamma$ are scalars while $a$, $b$, and $c$ are the vectors. You need to perform three scalar multiplications then add the resultant vectors. That is what the question is asking you to do.
