Question

16. Write the resultant of the two vectors as an ordered pair.

<3, 6> and <5, –5> (2 points)

Answer 1

vector addition is as v=<a,b> w=<c,d>
v + w = <a+c,b+d>

Answer 2

@jdoe0001 Im just really confused and need help

Answer 3

well, is very straightforward :|

Answer 4

what part is confusing you?

Answer 5

is that all i write for the answer?

Answer 6

vector addition is as v=<a,b> w=<c,d> v + w = <a+c,b+d>
and what you have is <3, 6> and <5, –5>

Answer 7

the resultant I gather is meant to be the addition of both

Answer 8

im still confused @jdoe0001 what am i supposed to write

Answer 9

what is the result?

Answer 10

you're supposed to add those 2 vectors, the result is the addition of both as shown above :)

Answer 11

help me please

Answer 12

what vectors tho? Ive never done any sort of problem like this so I honestly have no clue what to do

Answer 13

@jdoe0001

Answer 14

so, what part of -> VECTOR1=<a,b> VECTOR2=<c,d> VECTOR1 + VECTOR2 = <a+c,b+d>
is confusing you? the answer is from the <a+c,b+d> part, just add them up :|

Answer 15

well, if you haven't done any vectors before, it seems to me you may be reading the wrong book for your class, or your teacher haven't covered it and should have already

Answer 16

im only in pre algebra! I was just doing this a a challenge option for extra work! :(

Answer 17

understood :|, then you may want to get a good book on vectors :)
