Points A and B are at #(7 ,3 )# and #(5 ,9 )#, respectively. Point A is rotated counterclockwise about the origin by #(3pi)/2 # and dilated about point C by a factor of #2 #. If point A is now at point B, what are the coordinates of point C?

#C=(1,-23)#

Explanation:

#"under a counterclockwise rotation about the origin of "(3pi)/2#

#• " a point "(x,y)to(y,-x)#

#A(7,3)toA'(3,-7)#

#vec(CB)=color(red)(2)vec(CA')#

#ulb-ulc=2(ula'-ulc)#

#ulb-ulc=2ula'-2ulc#

#ulc=2ula'-ulb#

#color(white)(ulc)=2((3),(-7))-((5),(9))#

#color(white)(ulc)=((6),(-14))-((5),(9))=((1),(-23))#

#rArrC=(1,-23)#
