Vector calculus in plane and space: Vectors in Planes and Space
Addition of vectors
Let #\vec{u}#, #\vec{v}#, and #\vec{w}# be three vectors. Write the linear combination #(-3\vec{u}-4\vec{v}-3\vec{w}) + (-2\vec{u} + 5\vec{v} + 8\vec{w})# in such a way that the three vectors each appear once with an integer scalar.
#(-3\vec{u}-4\vec{v}-3\vec{w}) + (-2\vec{u} + 5\vec{v} + 8\vec{w})=# #\cdot\vec{u}# #+# #\cdot\vec{v}# #+# #\cdot\vec{w}#
