\(\underline{a}\) and \(\underline{b}\) are non coplanar and \(5 \underline{u}-3 \underline{\mathrm{v}}=\underline{\mathrm{w}} .\) if \(\underline{u}=\mathrm{ma}+2 \mathrm{nb}\) and \(\underline{\mathrm{v}}=-2 \mathrm{na}+3 \mathrm{mb}\) and \(\underline{\mathrm{w}}=4 \underline{\mathrm{a}}-2 \underline{\mathrm{b}} .\) find \(\mathrm{m}=\underline{\mathrm{n}}=\) (a) \((1 / 2),(1 / 4)\) (b) \((1 / 2),(1 / 3)\) (c) \((1 / 3),(1 / 4)\) (d) \(-(1 / 2),-(1 / 4)\)

Given: \(5\underline{u} - 3\underline{v} = \underline{w}\) Now, we will substitute the given expressions of \(\underline{u}\), \(\underline{v}\), and \(\underline{w}\) into the equation: \(5(m\underline{a} + 2n\underline{b}) - 3(-2n\underline{a} + 3m\underline{b}) = 4\underline{a} - 2\underline{b}\)

Next, we distribute the scalars to each of the vectors and rearrange the terms: \(5m\underline{a} + 10n\underline{b} + 6n\underline{a} - 9m\underline{b} = 4\underline{a} - 2\underline{b}\) Now group \(\underline{a}\) and \(\underline{b}\) terms: \((5m + 6n)\underline{a} + (10n - 9m)\underline{b} = 4\underline{a} - 2\underline{b}\)

Since the vectors \(\underline{a}\) and \(\underline{b}\) are non-coplanar, this can be treated as a system of two equations in the coefficients \(m\) and \(n\). \begin{align*} 5m + 6n &= 4 \\ 10n - 9m &= -2 \end{align*}

To solve for m and n, we can multiply the first equation by 2 to make the coefficients of m match, and then subtract the second equation from the result: \begin{align*} &2(5m + 6n) = 2(4) \\ &10m + 12n = 8 \\ \\ &10m + 12n - (10n - 9m) = 8 - (-2) \\ &19m = 10 \\ &m = \frac{10}{19} \end{align*} Now, substitute \(m\) into the first equation to solve for \(n\): \[ 5\left(\frac{10}{19}\right) + 6n = 4 \] Divide through by 5 to simplify: \[ \frac{10}{19} + \frac{6}{5}n = \frac{4}{5} \] Now isolate \(n\): \[ \frac{6}{5}n = \frac{4}{5} - \frac{10}{19} \] Find a common denominator (19) and subtract: \[ \frac{6}{5}n = \frac{16}{95} \] Now divide through by \(\frac{6}{5}\): \[ n = \frac{8}{57} \] Therefore, the values of m and n are: \[ m = \frac{10}{19}, \quad n = \frac{8}{57} \] This option is not provided in the multiple-choice answers. There seems to be an error in the problem or the given options.
