Relative to a fixed origin O, the point A has position vector (8i+13j-2k), the point B has position vector (10i+14j-4k). A line l passes through points A and B. Find the vector equation of this line.

The vector equation of any line is composed of the addition of a point on the line and some distance in the direction of the line, in the form y=(x,y,z) +d(x_1, y_1, z_1), where (x,y,z) is any point on th...
