Example Questions

Example Question #267 : Vectors And Vector Operations

Find the sum of the vectors $\left \langle 2x,7y,z\right \rangle$ and $\left \langle 4x,4y,2z\right \rangle$

Possible Answers:

$\left \langle 6x,11y,4\right \rangle$

$\left \langle 6x,10y,3z\right \rangle$

$\left \langle 6x,11y,3z\right \rangle$

$\left \langle 5x,11y,3z\right \rangle$

Correct answer:

$\left \langle 6x,11y,3z\right \rangle$

Explanation:

To find the sum of two vectors $a=\left \langle x_1,y_1,z_1\right \rangle$ and $b=\left \langle x_2,y_2,z_2\right \rangle$ , we use the following formula:

$a+b=\left \langle (x_1+x_2),(y_1+y_2),(z_1+z_2) \right \rangle$

Applying to the vectors from the problem statement, we get

$\left \langle (2x+4x),(7y+4y),(z+2z) \right \rangle=\left \langle 6x,11y,3z\right \rangle$

Solve:

$\left \langle 3+x, 5, x+1 \right\rangle + \left \langle x^2, 2, 5\right \rangle$

Possible Answers:

$\left \langle 3x^2+x^3, 10, 5x+5\right \rangle$

x^2+2x+16

Correct answer:

$\left \langle x^2+x+3, 7, x+6\right \rangle$

Explanation:

To add two vectors together, we simply add the corresponding components (for example, $\left \langle a, b\right \rangle+ \left \langle c, d\right \rangle= \left \langle a+c, b+d\right \rangle$ )

Our final answer is

$\left \langle x^2+x+3, 7, x+6\right \rangle$
