Final answer:

The product asked is the dot product of two vectors, (2,3) and (1,1). After multiplying and summing the corresponding components, the result is 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Finding the Product of Two Vectors

The question seems to be asking about the product of two points, but typically in mathematics, we don't directly multiply points. Instead, if we consider these points as two-dimensional vectors, then the product in question is likely the dot product (also known as scalar product), which is found by multiplying the corresponding components of the vectors and summing the results.

Let's consider vectors A = (2,3) and B = (1,1). The dot product A · B is calculated as:

  1. Multiply the corresponding components of the two vectors: (2 × 1) + (3 × 1).
  2. Add the products: 2 + 3.
  3. The result is the sum of these products, which is 5.

Therefore, the product of vectors (2,3) and (1,1) is 5.
