A dilation maps (4, 6) to (2, 3).

Under the same dilation, (-1, 3) would be mapped to

1st we will need to find the scale factor
scale factor = image/pre image
scale factor = 2/4

now
(-1,3) --> (-1*2/4 , 3 * 2/4) --> (-1/2,3/2)

Answer: After dilation, the above points would be mapped to


((-1)/(2),(3)/(2))

Explanation:

Since we have given that

A dilation maps (4,6) to (2,3) that means

Dilation is a scale factor of
(1)/(2)

So, using the same dilation, we have coordinates (-1,3) that would be mapped to is given by


-(1)/(2)\ and\ (3)/(2)

So, (-1,3) mapped to
((-1)/(2),(3)/(2))

Hence, after dilation, the above points would be mapped to


((-1)/(2),(3)/(2))
