A flea falls onto marked graph paper at the point (3, 2). She begins moving from that point with velocity vector v = (−1,−2) (i.e., she moves 1 graph paper unit per minute in the negative x-direction and 2 graph paper units per minute in the negative y-direction). (a) What is the speed of the flea? (b) Where is the flea after 3 minutes? (c) How long does it take the flea to get to the point (−4,−12)? (d) Does the flea reach the point (−13,−27)? Why or why not?
