Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation

PQ = \(\begin {pmatrix} 2 & 3\\ -4 & 1\end {pmatrix}\) = \(\begin {pmatrix} 6 \\ 8 \end {pmatrix}\) = \(\begin {pmatrix} 36 \\ - 16\end {pmatrix}\)

\(\begin {pmatrix} 36 \\ -16 \end {pmatrix} \) = k = \(\begin {pmatrix} 45 \\ -20 \end {pmatrix} \)

k = \(\frac{36}{45}\) 

= \(\frac{4}{5}\)
