The translation to the center (-7,6) to the center (12,12) is given by the rule


(x,y)\longrightarrow(x+19,y+6)

On the other hand, the dilation from circle 1 to circle 2 has a scale factor given by the ratio of the given radii, that is,


\begin{gathered} \text{scale factor=}\frac{new\text{ lenght}}{\text{original length}} \\ \text{scale factor=}(1)/(2) \end{gathered}

Then the scale factor is 1/2.
