Answer:
(a) The scale factor is 2.5 and the coordinates of point C are (–2.4, –0.8)
Explanation:
We are given ...
A(-4, 3.2) and A'(-10, 8)
C'( -6, -2)
__
The scale factor is the ratio of corresponding coordinates:
A'x/Ax = -10/-4 = 2.5 . . . scale factor
Then the coordinates of C will be ...
C' = 2.5C
C = C'/2.5 = (-6, -2)/2.5
C = (-2.4, -0.8)
