Math teachers posting videos explaining concepts need a tip jar. You just helped my daughter and I with her Summer packet, rising 8th grader math work. Thank you!

They say the order the vectors are deducted does not matter; point a & point b so long as you are doing x2 - x1 or y2 - y1 or x1 - x2 & y1 - y2; so long as the subscripts of the variable are the same. Well then look at last example: (-2 - 0)/ (-3 - -3)= -2/0. So the order of points does matter?
