Initially, the point (-3,4) is in the second quadrant of the cartesian plane. If the rotation is about point (-3,0) at 90 degrees, you find a point that when connected to (-3,4) makes two lines perpendicular to each other. Since the direction is counterclockwise, you move 3 points to the left, then 4 points down. That would be (-7,0). The answer is A.

Answer:

The correct option is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a point rotated  90° counterclockwise about the point (a, b), then

[tex](x,y)\Rightarrow (-(y-b)+a,x-a+b)[/tex]

If a point rotated  90° counterclockwise about the point (–3, 0), then

[tex](x,y)\Rightarrow (-y-3,x+3)[/tex]

The coordinates of given point are (-3,4). So, the image of the point (–3, 4) after a rotation of 90° counterclockwise about the point (–3, 0) is

[tex](-3,4)\Rightarrow (-4-3,(-3)+3)[/tex]

[tex](-3,4)\Rightarrow (-7,0)[/tex]

The image of given point is (-3,4). Therefore the correct option is A.
