Answer

$\lt -16,29\gt$ and $\sqrt {1097}$

Work Step by Step

The formula to find the magnitude of a vector is: $|n|=\sqrt{n_1^2+n_2^2}$ Here, $-2u +5v=-2\lt 3,-2 \gt +5 \lt -2,5 \gt =\lt -16,29 \gt$ and $|\lt -16,29\gt|=\sqrt{(-16)^2+(29)^2}=\sqrt {1097}$ Hence, our final answers are: $\lt -16,29\gt$ and $\sqrt {1097}$
