Addition
For addition you need to first identify the X and Y components of your vectors, this will be the horizontal distance of the vector (X) And the vertical distance of the vector (Y) Then you add together both the X’s and both the Y’s.
Subtraction
Subtraction is the same as addition but you need to reverse the second vector in the operation, So if the question asks for (7,8) – (-9,10) , you need to reverse the second vector and then do addition as normal. The question then becomes (7,8) + (9,-10). Solving that gets you (16, -2).
