Question

Given vectors u = (-6, -3) and v

= (3,-4), find the sum u + v and write the result in component form. Click and drag either vector to add graphically.

Answer 1

Problem:

Not enough context but I'll try to explain it the best I can.

Answer:

the sum u + v is (-3, -7) in component form.

To check graphically, we can draw the vectors u and v with their tails at the origin, and then draw the vector u + v by placing its tail at the head of vector v and drawing an arrow from the tail of vector u to the head of vector u + v. The resulting vector should have coordinates (-3, -7).

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the sum u + v of the given vectors, we add the corresponding components of u and v.

u + v = (-6, -3) + (3, -4)

= (-6+3, -3+(-4))

= (-3, -7)
