A point travels East 3 spaces and South 8 spaces. Write the description in algebraic terms.

A point travels East 3 spaces and South 8 spaces.

Algebraic equation

Step-by-step explanation:

From the viewpoint of Linear Algebra, the description can be described by means of translation, which is defined as:

(1)

Where:

- Initial position of the traveller, dimensionless.

- Translation vector, dimensionless.

- Final position of the traveller, dimensionless.

Let suppose that represents the number of steps to the north, and , the number of steps to the east.

If we know that and , then the resulting equation is:

the domain of a function is the set of input values, x , for which a function is defined. the domain is shown in the left oval in the picture below. the function provides an output value, f(x) , for each member of the domain.
