Answer:
C. (-2, -1)
Step-by-step explanation:
It can help to plot the points.
For rotation 180 degrees, the center of rotation is the midpoint of the segment joining the given point and its image. That means you want to find the other end of a segment with one end (-4, 1) and midpoint (-3, 0).
For center of rotation O, this means ...
O = (A +A')/2
2O -A = A'
A' = 2(-3, 0) -(-4, 1) = (-6+4, 0 -1) = (-2, -1)
The coordinates of the image are (-2, -1).

We are given the following information:
<em />
<em>each person uses 3/8 a box</em>
<em>there are 6 boxes</em>
Because each box is , and there are 6 boxes, we know that 1 person is
, or
.
In order to find how many people can use the 6 boxes, we can divide it by 3 (for each use):
48 / 3 = 16
Therefore, 16 people can share the worms.
