vectors in a plane Let u = <-7, -2>. Find 8u.

OpenStudy (usukidoll):

multiply 8 with the u vector

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay so its -56 -16

OpenStudy (usukidoll):

yeah but put it in proper notation like <-56, -16>

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh okay ididnt kno it was that simple

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Let u = <7, -3>, v = <-9, 5>. Find 4u - 3v.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im going to do this one

OpenStudy (usukidoll):

careful while you can multiply the same way when subtracting it's u1-v1, u2-v2 because u = <u1,u2,...un> and v = <v1,v2,...vn> u-v = <u1-v1, u2-v2,...un-vn>

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok i didnt kno tht, thanks!

OpenStudy (usukidoll):

Calc III is easy what I'm dealing with is crazy XD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol what are u dealing with?

OpenStudy (usukidoll):

differential equations proving something ughhh

OpenStudy (anonymous):

are you in college?

OpenStudy (usukidoll):

yup. I'm gonna attempt something and post it on here. I figure if i solve it first like I usually do, then I might get it.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay so far i got 4(7,3)-3(-9,5)

OpenStudy (usukidoll):

multiple the 4 with <7,3> - multiply 3 with <-9,5>

OpenStudy (anonymous):

<28,12>-<-27,15>

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it <1,3>

OpenStudy (usukidoll):

hmmm... <28-(-27)>,<12-15>

OpenStudy (anonymous):

<55,-3>

OpenStudy (usukidoll):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its not in my answer choice

OpenStudy (usukidoll):

huh? What are your answer choices?

OpenStudy (usukidoll):

oh crud my bad. I don't think you have to distribute the negative. try <1,-3>

OpenStudy (usukidoll):

<28-27>,<12-15>

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yh i think its tht :)

OpenStudy (usukidoll):

it's been a ywear since I've done some, but I still remember some of it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay what do i do for this one Let u = <-4, -3>. Find the unit vector in the direction of u, and write your answer in component form.

OpenStudy (usukidoll):

gotta find the formula or the format for component form. I need to finish my stuff. sorry.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok but thank you soo much :D
