27. Algebraic Vectors
CANOEING Suppose a person is canoeing due east across a river at 4 miles per hour. If the river is flowing south at 3 miles an hour, what is the resultant direction and velocity of the canoe?
The initial path of the canoe is due east, so a vector representing the path lies on the positive x-axis 4 units long. The river is flowing south, so a vector representing the river will be parallel to the negative y-axis 3 units long. The resultant path can be represented by a vector from the initial point of the vector representing the canoe to the terminal point of the vector representing the river.
