B (5,9)
A (2,3)
the points A, B and C lie on the straight line y = 2x-1
The coordinates of A are (2, 3).
The coordinates of B are (5, 9).

Answer:

  C = (11, 21)

Step-by-step explanation:

The relation AC = 3AB can be used to find the coordinates of C given those of A and B.

__

  C -A = 3(B -A)

  C = 3B -2A . . . . . add A to both sides

  C = 3(5, 9) -2(2, 3) = (15 -4, 27 -6) . . . . use the given points for A and B

  C = (11, 21)
