14 #21) Is E + D = G + H ?

17 This is a fancy way to say ai is the run of the vector(i is like x) and bj is the rise/fall of the vector(j is like y) So if the vector has initial (starts) point (2,-3) and a terminal (ends) point (4,2) then you can write the vector as.. v = 2i + 5j (2 is the distance between the x coordinates and 5 is the distance between y coordinates)

18 Find the position vector if P is the initial point and Q is the terminal point.
#27) P = (0,0) and Q = (3,4) #31) P = (-2,-1) and Q = (6,-2)
