According to the given data we have the following:

point (5,7) is dilated with a scale factor of 6

In order to calculate the resultant point we would have to make the following:

Multiply the coordinates of the original point (5, 7) by 6

Therefore, the resultant point would be=(5*6,7*6)

5*6=30

7*6=42

Therefore, the resultant point would be=(30,42)
