Question

A dilation has center (0, 0). Find the image of each point for the given scale factor. C(0,4); D(12)(C)A. (4,0)B. (0,2)C. (12, 41)D. (12, 0))

Answer 1

In the problem the center of dilation is located at (0, 0).

The problem whats us to find the image of the point D given that it has a scale factor of 1/2 of C.

Since we can stablish that the points of the D is just 1/2 of the points of C.

C has the coordinate (0, 4).

And (1/2)(0) = 0

(1/2)(4) = 2

Therefore the coordinates of D which is half of C is (0, 2)

Which is LETTER B. (0, 2)
