Question

The vector <2,-5 > has a ter min al point at (-6, -1). What are the coordinates of its inital point?

Answer 1

we have the vector <2,-5>

the terminal point is (-6,-1)

when we have this kind of problems, in order to know the initial point we need to subtract the vector from the final point

initial point (-6-2,-1+5)=(-8,4)

the initial point is (-8,4)
