Question of vector

1) Given that ṕ=−3i+9 j andq́=3 i−5 j . Find each of the following vector.

a.) ṕ+ q́

= (3i + 9j) + (3i -6j)

= (3i +3i) + (9i – 6j)

= 6i +4j

b.) q́− ṕ

= (3i – 5j) – (3i + 9j)

=3i -5j – 3i + 9j

= 4j

The position of point A, B and C are OA=3i + 2j-4k, OB = 2i –j + 3k and OC= -I +3j -2k. Determine
