How to find a vector from two endpoints?

So I have the two terminal points of a vector, (1,3) and (-1, 5), and I have to find the vector. Normally, you would just subtract the points, but wouldn't that give you a vector in the first quadrant? So, how are you supposed find this specific vector?





Please explain!


Any and all help welcome!


Thanks so much!|||(-1-1, 5-3) = (-2, 2)


The resulting vector can be in any quadrant.
