A linear transformation T is defined by T: (x,y) → (...

A linear transformation T is defined by T: (x,y) → (3x - y, x + 4y). Find the image of (2, -1) under T.

A.

(7, -2)

B.

(5, -2)

C.

(-2, 7)

D.

(-7, 2)

Correct answer is A

Let (x1, y1) be the image of the point (x, y) under the given transformations.
x1 = 3x - y
y1 = x + 4y
|3114||xy=||x1y1|

|3114||21=||72|
