\[\mathbf{a} = \begin{pmatrix} 2 \\ 3 \end{pmatrix} \qquad \mathbf{b} = \begin{pmatrix} -1 \\ 2 \end{pmatrix} \qquad \mathbf{c} = \begin{pmatrix} 4 \\ 1 \end{pmatrix}\]
(a) Work out as a column vector
(i) \(\mathbf{a} + \mathbf{b}\) (1)
(ii) \(2\mathbf{a} - \mathbf{c}\) (2)

The vector \(\mathbf{d}\) is drawn on the grid.

Square grid with point P marked with a cross. Vector d is drawn as a line segment 3 squares to the right and 2 squares down, with an arrow showing its direction
(b) From the point \(P\), draw the vector \(2\mathbf{d}\) (1)
