Answer:

Coordinates of W' → (3, 3)

Coordinates of U' → (5, 4)

Explanation:

If the given figure is dilated about a point (4, 3) by a scale factor k =
(1)/(2)

Then the length of each side will get reduced to half of its original length.

(As in the figure attached)

Scale factor =
\frac{\text{Side length of image}}{\text{Side length of preimage}}


(1)/(2)=(V'U')/(VU)

V'U' =
(1)/(2)(VU)

Now from the graph,

Coordinates of W' → (3, 3)

Coordinates of U' → (5, 4)
