Let u=[1 2 3]T , v=[2 -3 1]T , and w=[3 2 -1]T. Find the components of
a) u-w
b) 7v+3
c) -w+v
d) 3(u-7v)
e) -3v-8w
f) 2v-(u+w)

Do you know how vectors are added?
If no, look in the script or a book.
If yes, where do you get problems?
 
can you give me the answer of part a? Because I forget how to do it
 
There are two things I don't understand about this problem. First, when finding the nth root of a number, there should in theory be n solutions. However, the formula produces n+1 roots. Here is how. The first root is simply ##\left(r\right)^{\left(\frac{1}{n}\right)}##. Then you multiply this first root by n additional expressions given by the formula, as you go through k=0,1,...n-1. So you end up with n+1 roots, which cannot be correct. Let me illustrate what I mean. For this...
