Explain

<p> The resultant vector is found by performing vector addition and scalar multiplication. Scalar multiplication involves multiplying a vector by a number, called a scalar. In your problem, you have to multiply vector 'u' by a scalar 2. Vector addition (or vector subtraction in your case) involves adding (or subtracting) vector components. Specifically, we find the scalar multiple 2u and then subtract vector v [ie, perform the operation 2u - v]. The operation is performed for each component (x, y, and z) of the vectors.</p>
