Examples

$(5, 18)$ , $(12, 14)$

Step 1

To find the position vector, subtract the initial point vector $P$ from the terminal point vector $Q$ .

$Q - P = (12 i + 14 j) - (5 i + 18 j)$

Step 2.1

Apply the distributive property.

$12 i + 14 j - (5 i) - (18 j)$

Step 2.2

Multiply $5$ by $- 1$ .

$12 i + 14 j - 5 i - (18 j)$

Step 2.3

Multiply $18$ by $- 1$ .

$12 i + 14 j - 5 i - 18 j$

Step 3

Simplify by adding terms.
