The x component goes from 1 to 7  ( 6 to the right) and y component goes down 2 (  = -2)  so the answer is  the second choice.   (6, -2)

Answer:

Explanation:

Alright, lets get started.

The initial point A is given as :
(x_(1),y_(1))=(1,3)

The terminal point B is given as :
(x_(2),y_(2) )=(7,1)

the vector form is :
(x_(2)- x_(1), y_(2)- y_(1))

the vector form is :
(7-1, 1-3)

The vector form is : (6, -2)

Hence the the answer is B (6,-2) : Answer

Hope it will help :)
