Question

Geometry help. If x is the image of U under a dilation centered at P, what is the scale factor.

Answer 1

a dilation pushes all points outwards, a factor of 2 would double the distance (in this case the point V)
every further step is then also an increase of the factor so
1->U (nothing changes)
2->V
3->W
4->X

so the correct answer is 4
