When dilation is about the origin, as it is here in every case, the image point coordinates are the original (pre-image) coordinates multiplied by the scale factor.

1. Multiply every coordinate value by 5:

... W' = (-5, 10), X' = (-15, -5), Y' = (25, -5), Z' = (15, 10)

2. Multiply every coordinate value by 1/3:

... A' = (-2, 5), B' = (0, 5/3), C' = (1, 10/3)

3. A' = (2, 8), B' = (6, 2), C' = (2, 2)

4. The image coordinates are 5 times the original coordinates, so ...

... the scale factor of the dilation is 5.
