Question

Find the component form of a vector with initial point (2,-1,7) and terminal point Q(-2,3,-5)

Answer 1

Hey! Lets solve this shall we ?

So, we must find the component form of the given vectors P(2,-1,7) and terminal point Q(-2,3,-5). Then, to create the component for these two we subtract P from Q to get

PQ = <-2-2, 3-(-1), -5-7> = <-4, 4, -12>

I hope this helped!
