Question

Segment J K has coordinates J begin ordered pair 3 comma negative 6 end ordered pair and K begin ordered pair negative 3 comma 2 end ordered pair.

When segment J K is dilated with a scale factor negative 4, what are the coordinates of J prime and K prime?

options:

J prime begin ordered pair negative 12 comma 24 end ordered pair and K prime begin ordered pair 12 comma negative 8 end ordered pair

J primebegin ordered pair negative 1 comma negative 10 end ordered pair and K prime begin ordered pair negative 7 comma negative 2 end ordered pair

J prime begin ordered pair negative fraction 3 over 4 end fraction comma 3 over 2 end ordered pair and K prime begin ordered pair 3 over 4 comma negative 1 half end ordered pair

J prime begin ordered pair 7 comma negative 2 end ordered pair and K prime begin ordered pair 1 comma 6 end ordered pair

Answer 1

J' is at (-12, 24) and K' is at (12, -8).

Multiply both the x- and y-coordinates of J by -4; then do the same with the coordinates of K.
