Given that P = (-5, 5) and Q = (-13, 10), find the component form and magnitude of 2. PQ

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You want to find the component form and magnitude of 2PQ? Just want to clarify.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (phi):

PQ means from P to Q. you compute it by find P-Q (subtract corresponding components) if you want 2*PQ, multiply the components of PQ by 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, the vector can be found by finding the difference of each component. Then all you have to do is multiply by 2.

Thank you both

OpenStudy (phi):

oops. PQ is computed as Q-P (I did it backwards up above)

Thank you
