Solve for v v=-2i+5j

Problem

v=−2*i+5*j

Solution

1. Identify the components of the vector v given in standard unit vector notation.

2. Determine the horizontal component (v_x) which is the coefficient of the unit vector i

(v_x)=−2

3. Determine the vertical component (v_y) which is the coefficient of the unit vector j

(v_y)=5

4. Express the vector in component form <(v_x),(v_y)> as the solution.

v=<−2,5>

Final Answer

v=<−2,5>
