Answer:

F (3x, 3y)

Step-by-step explanation:

Dilation about the origin multiplies each coordinate by the dilation factor. For some coordinates (x, y), dilation by a factor of 3 means the new coordinates are ...

... 3×(x, y) = (3x, 3y)

_____

Comment on the problem

The way the problem is worded, you expect an answer choice that will be specific to the coordinates of point A. There are none.

Instead, the answer choices are generic, corresponding to dilation of a point (x, y) by a factor of 3, translation up and to the right by 3, dilation by a factor of 1/3, and translation down and to the left by 3.
