Question

given vector u = (6,-4) and the graph of vector v, find v - 2u and express the result of terms in i and j

Answer 1

Answer:

0i + 10j, or just 10j

Step-by-step explanation:

Vector u = <6, -4> and vector v = <12, 2>.

We are to find v - 2u, which is:

<12, 2> - 2<6, -4>.  We combine x components and y components to obtain:

<12-12, 2+8>, or <0, 10>.

In terms of i and j, that'd be 0i + 10j, or just 10j.

Answer 2

Answer:

v-2u=10j

Step-by-step explanation:

The component of vector v, are

u=<6,-4>

From the graph; vector u, has components.

v=<12,2>

We perform the subtraction;

v-2u=<12,2>-2<6,-4>

We multiply out the scalar to get:

v-2u=<12,2>-<12,-8>

This implies that;

v-2u=<12-12,2--8>

v-2u=<0,10>

v-2u=0i+10j

v-2u=10j
