ECZ 2011 · O-Level Paper 1 — Geometrical Transformations

A transformation is represented by the matrix 20-31. A point J is mapped onto the point Y(6, 16) by this matrix. Find the coordinates of J.

  • A. (12, 34)
  • B. (3, 7)
  • C. (3, 25)
  • D. (6, 16)

Verified working — step 1

Let J = (x, y). Then 2x = 6 gives x = 3, and -3x + y = 16 gives -9 + y = 16, so y = …
