Correct answer
B
Step-by-step explanation
Let
$\begin{aligned}
& 3|\bar{z}-i|=1|2 \bar{z}+i| \\
& =3 \mid(x-(y+1) i|=|2 x+i(1-2 y)| \\
& =3 \sqrt{x^2+(y+1)^2}=\sqrt{(2 x)^2+(1-2 y)^2} \\
& =9\left(x^2+y^2+2 y+1\right)=4 x^2+4 y^2-4 y+1 \\
& \Rightarrow 5 x^2+5 y^2+22 y+8=0 \\
& \Rightarrow \text { Centre } \equiv\left(0,-\frac{11}{5}\right)
\end{aligned}$
