Vectors: p1(0,1,3), p2(2,4,-5) find a=p1p2(arrow above). I got -0.489i(hat) -0.978j(hat) +1.22k(hat). But the answers say 2i(hat) +3j(hat) -8k(hat). what am i doing wrong?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the vector between those two points?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is that what you're looking for?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes from p1 to p2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes the x component (i) changes by +2 (from 0->2) the y component (j) changes by +3 (from 1->4) and so on...
