Question

Find the vector from the point (4,1,8) to the point (2,2,0)

Answer 1

zero one out and do the same to the other

Answer 2

(4, 1,8) (2,2,0)
-4-1-8 -4-1-8
----------------
0,0,0 <-2,2,-8>

Answer 3

and simplify :)

Answer 4

@amistre64 think you meant <-2, 1, -8>

Answer 5

.... im having issues with my fingertips today, i say one thing and they type another ... :)

Answer 6

but yes ...

Answer 7

(2 - 4) i + (2 - 1) j + (0 - 8)k, where i,j,k are unit vectors
= -2i + j -8 k
which is the same as (-2,1,-8)

Ans. (-2,1,-8)

Answer 8

hmm....says their wrong?

Answer 9

if in doubt, negate everything lol

Answer 10

they prolly dont want a negtive first

Answer 11

chances are the vector is going in the wrong direction

Answer 12

<2,-1,8> and check to see that it doesnt ask for the unit vector

Answer 13

yea...still poppin up wrong

Answer 14

then it asked you something else

Answer 15

then they probably want the unit vector pointing in one of those two directions?

Answer 16

for the question you asked the answer is, as jim pointed out, <-2, 1, -8>
