Problem

Compute $\mathbf{u}+\mathbf{v}$ and $\mathbf{u}-\mathbf{2} \mathbf{v}$.
\[
u=\left[\begin{array}{r}
-6 \\
4
\end{array}\right], v=\left[\begin{array}{r}
-5 \\
6
\end{array}\right]
\]
$\mathbf{u}+\mathbf{v}=\square$ (Simplify your answer.)

Answer

Final Answer: \(\mathbf{u}+\mathbf{v}=\boxed{[-11, 10]}\)

Steps

Step 1 :The question is asking for the sum of two vectors, \(\mathbf{u}\) and \(\mathbf{v}\). To add two vectors, we simply add their corresponding components. In this case, we add the first component of \(\mathbf{u}\) to the first component of \(\mathbf{v}\), and the second component of \(\mathbf{u}\) to the second component of \(\mathbf{v}\).

Step 2 :\(\mathbf{u} = [-6, 4]\)

Step 3 :\(\mathbf{v} = [-5, 6]\)

Step 4 :Adding the corresponding components of \(\mathbf{u}\) and \(\mathbf{v}\), we get \(\mathbf{u} + \mathbf{v} = [-11, 10]\)

Step 5 :Final Answer: \(\mathbf{u}+\mathbf{v}=\boxed{[-11, 10]}\)
