Answer: C. 13

===============================================

Step-by-step explanation:

In general if we have these two vectors

u = (a,b)

v = (c,d)

Then the dot product of them is

u dot v = a*c + b*d

We multiply the corresponding coordinates, then add up the products.

-----------------------

In this case,

u = (3,2)

v = (1,5)

u dot v = 3*1+2*5

u dot v = 3 + 10

u dot v = 13
