Answer:

a.
y=2x

b.
y=2x+3

Explanation:

We are given that a line


y=x

a. We have to find the equation of resulting line when the given line is dilated by a factor of 2.

We know that when a line is dilated by a then equation of line is given by


y=ax

We have a=2

Then, equation of line after dilation


y=2x

b.We have to find the equation of line when resulting line is translated 3 units up

Transformation rule when the y shift 3 units upward is given by


(x,y)\righarrow (x,y+3)

When the line
y=2x is translated 3 units up then the equation of line is given by


y=2x+3
