Question

Given the vectors w = <-5, 3> and z = <1, 4>, find the results of the vector subtractions. -w − z =

Answer 1

Answer:

< 4, - 7 >

Step-by-step explanation:

- w - z

= - < - 5, 3 > - < 1, 4 > ← multiply each component in w by - 1

= < 5, - 3 > - < 1, 4 > ← subtract corresponding components

= < 5 - 1, - 3 - 4 >

= < 4, - 7 >
