Transcribed Image Text:## Vector Operations Problem
**Problem Statement:**
Suppose \(\bar{u} = \langle 4, 1, 1 \rangle\) and \(\bar{v} = \langle 2, -5, -3 \rangle\). Then:
1. \( \bar{u} + \bar{v} = \) _________
2. \( \bar{u} - \bar{v} = \) _________
3. \( \bar{v} - \bar{u} = \) _________
4. \( 2\bar{u} = \) _________
5. \( -\frac{1}{5}\bar{v} = \) _________
6. \( 5\bar{u} - 6\bar{v} = \) _________
**Explanation:**
1. **Addition of Vectors**:
- \( \bar{u} + \bar{v} \) involves adding corresponding components of \(\bar{u}\) and \(\bar{v}\).
2. **Subtraction of Vectors**:
- \( \bar{u} - \bar{v} \) involves subtracting corresponding components of \(\bar{v}\) from \(\bar{u}\).
3. **Subtraction of Vectors (Reversed)**:
- \( \bar{v} - \bar{u} \) involves subtracting corresponding components of \(\bar{u}\) from \(\bar{v}\).
4. **Scalar Multiplication**:
- \( 2\bar{u} \) involves multiplying each component of \( \bar{u} \) by 2.
5. **Scalar Multiplication with Negative Fraction**:
- \( -\frac{1}{5}\bar{v} \) involves multiplying each component of \(\bar{v}\) by \(-\frac{1}{5}\).
6. **Linear Combination of Vectors**:
- \( 5\bar{u} - 6\bar{v} \) involves multiplying each component of \(\bar{u}\) by 5 and each component of \(\bar{v}\) by \(-6\), and then adding the resulting vectors.
