Answer:

Correct choice is C

Explanation:

A dilation by a factor
(1)/(2) with the center of dilation at origin has the rule:


(x,y)\mapsto \left((x)/(2),(y)/(2)\right).

If pre-image point A has coordinates (0,-5) (from the diagram), then the image point A' will have coordinates


\left((0)/(2),(-5)/(2)\right)=\left(0,-2.5\right).
