Let P(2, 3) be a point on a figure. The figure is dilated by a scale factor of 4.

What are the coordinates of P′?

Write the ordered pair.

Hi there!

If (2,3) is a point and 4 is the scale factor, we need to multiply both x and y by 4 to dilate the figure. Doing this gives us (8,12).

Hope this helps!! :)
If there's anything else that I can help you with, please let me know!
