(b) Assuming the 𝓍 component is known to be positive, specify the vector which, if you add it to the original one, would give a resultant vector that is 80.0 units long and points entirely in the - 𝓍 direction. 

At t = 0, a particle starts from rest at 𝓍 = 0, y = 0 and moves in the xy plane with an acceleration $\vec{a}=(4.0\hat{i}+3.0\hat{j}){\text{m/s}}^2$. Determine the 𝓍 and y components of velocity.
