Question

What are the coordinates of the image of the point (4, 2) after a dilation with a center of (0, 0) and a scale factor of 2? A. (0, 0) B. (2, 1) C. (4, 2) D. (8, 4)

Answer 1

D. (8, 4) IS THE ANSWER

Answer 2

Option D (8,4)

Explanation:

we know that

The dilation centered at the origin (0,0) is very simple. To find out the image point multiply the scale factor to the x and y-coordinates of the pre-image point.

so

(2*4,2*2) -----> (8,4)
