Answer:

hi,

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}a&=&3*\vec{i}-4\vec{j}\\b&=&2*\vec{i}-5\vec{j}\\c&=&\lambda*\vec{i}+\mu*\vec{j}\\\end{array}\right.\\\\\\\lambda*c=2a+3b\\=2*(3*\vec{i}-4\vec{j})+3*(2*\vec{i}-5\vec{j})\\=12*\vec{i}-23\vec{j}\\=\lambda*(\lambda*\vec{i}+\mu*\vec{j})\\\\\\\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}\lambda^2&=&12\\\lambda*\mu&=&-23\end{array}\right.\\\\\\\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}\lambda&=&2\sqrt{3}\\\mu&=&\dfrac{-23*\sqrt{3} }{6} \\\end{array}\right.\\[/tex]
