Question

let v be the vector from initial point $p_1 = (-2, -2)$ to terminal point $p_2 = (2,7)$. write v in terms of i and j. the vector from point $p_1 = (-2, -2)$ to point $p_2 = (2,7)$ is $v = \square$. (simplify your answer. type your answer in terms of i and j.)

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate x-component of v

$v_x = 2 - (-2) = 4$

Step2: Calculate y-component of v

$v_y = 7 - (-2) = 9$

Step3: Write v in i,j form

$\mathbf{v} = v_x\mathbf{i} + v_y\mathbf{j}$

Answer:

$\mathbf{v} = 4\mathbf{i} + 9\mathbf{j}$
