No, the point (3,-2) does not lie on the on the equation r=(2,1) + t (1,-3).
It is the minimum distance shown between two extremes points with no curves. It is of infinite length when the extremes points are at infinite distance.
Given extremes points:
r(2,1) and t(1,-3)
The equation of the line becomes:
[tex](y - y_{2} ) = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1} }{x_{2} - x_{1} } (x - x_{2} )[/tex]
[tex](y - (-3) ) = \frac{-3 - 1 }{1 - 2 } (x - 1 )[/tex]
[tex](y + 3 ) = \frac{ -4 }{-1 } (x - 1 )[/tex]
[tex](y + 3 ) = 4 (x - 1 )\\y = 4x - 4 -3\\y = 4x -7[/tex]
[tex]y - 4x + 7 = 0[/tex]
Now put the given point (3, -2) and check whether it satisfices the line equation or not:
[tex]-2 - 4(3) + 7 = -7[/tex] ≠ 0
Hence the line equation is not satisfices, RHS and LHS are different, therefore the point (3, -2) not lie on the given equation.
