Answer: The components of 3r-s are (-9, 7).

Explanation:

To find 3r-s, we need to first find 3r and then subtract s from it:

3r = 3<-2, 2> = <-6, 6>

3r - s = <-6, 6> - <3,-1>

Now we can subtract the components of s from the corresponding components of 3r:

= <-6-3, 6-(-1)>

= <-9, 7>

Therefore, the components of 3r-s are (-9, 7).
