Points A and B are at (3 ,6 ) and (7 ,3 ), respectively. Point A is rotated counterclockwise about the origin by pi and dilated about point C by a factor of 5 . If point A is now at point B, what are the coordinates of point C?

Explanation:
"under a counterclockwise rotation about the origin of "pi
• " a point "(x,y)to(-x,-y)
A(3,6)toA'(-3,-6)" where A' is the image of A"
vec(CB)=color(red)(5)vec(CA')
ulb-ulc=5(ula'-ulc)
ulb-ulc=5ula'-5ulc
4ulc=5ula'-ulb
color(white)(4ulc)=5((-3),(-6))-((7),(3))
color(white)(4ulc)=((-15),(-30))-((7),(3))=((-22),(-33))
ulc=1/4((-22),(-33))=((-11/2),(-33/4))
rArrC=(-11/2,-33/4)
