Answer

$[(-5,-3)]_C=(-1,1)\\ [(4,28]_C=(4,-20)\\ P_{C \leftarrow B}=\begin{bmatrix} -1 & 4 \\ 1 & -20 \end{bmatrix}$

Work Step by Step

We know that: For B: $a(6,2)+b(1,-1)=(-5,-3)$ For C: $c(6,2)+d(1,-1)=(4,28)$ To find $[(-5,-3)]_C$: $2a-b=-3\\ 6a+b=-5\\ 6a+b+2a-b=-8 \rightarrow 8a=-8 \rightarrow a=-1$ Thus $6(-1)+b=-5 \rightarrow b=1$ To find $[(4,28)]_{C}:$ $6c+d=4\\ 2c-d=28\\ 6c+d+2c-d=32 \rightarrow 8c=32 \rightarrow c=4$ Thus $6(4)+d=4 \rightarrow d=-20$ Hence we have: $[(-5,-3)]_C=(-1,1)\\ [(4,28]_C=(4,-20)\\ P_{C \leftarrow B}=\begin{bmatrix} -1 & 4 \\ 1 & -20 \end{bmatrix}$
