To find the coordinates of point C, we need to perform two transformations: rotation counterclockwise by (\frac{\pi}{2}) about the origin and dilation by a factor of 3 about point C.
First, let's perform the rotation counterclockwise by (\frac{\pi}{2}) about the origin. The rotation of a point (x, y) counterclockwise by (\frac{\pi}{2}) about the origin results in the point (-y, x).
So, applying this to point A(2, 2), we get (-2, 2).
Now, we need to dilate this point about point C by a factor of 3. Let's denote the coordinates of point C as (x, y).
The dilation formula is given by: [x' = x + k(x_c - x)] [y' = y + k(y_c - y)]
where (x, y) are the original coordinates, (x', y') are the new coordinates after dilation, (x_c, y_c) are the coordinates of the center of dilation, and k is the scale factor.
Given that the new coordinates after dilation are (3, 7), and the scale factor is 3, we can set up the equations:
[3 = -2 + 3(x_c + 2)] [7 = 2 + 3(y_c - 2)]
Solving these equations simultaneously will give us the coordinates of point C.
From the first equation: [3 = -2 + 3x_c + 6] [3 = 3x_c + 4] [3x_c = -1] [x_c = -\frac{1}{3}]
From the second equation: [7 = 2 + 3y_c - 6] [7 = 3y_c - 4] [3y_c = 11] [y_c = \frac{11}{3}]
So, the coordinates of point C are ((- \frac{1}{3}, \frac{11}{3})).

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
