Arrow $\mathbf{u}$ starts at $(0, 0)$ and ends at $(3, 2)$ . Arrow $\mathbf{w}$ starts at $(4, 1)$ and ends at $(7, 3)$ . Are $\mathbf{u}$ and $\mathbf{w}$ equal vectors?

No — they start at different points, so they are different vectors.

Yes — they have the same length and direction, so they are equal vectors.

No — one starts at the origin and the other does not.

Yes — all arrows of the same length are equal.
