Answer:

Therefore the transformation is a dilation of Figure a by a scale factor of -2

Explanation:

Take any point on figure A and see what its coordinates are

Take the corresponding point on figure B and see what its coordinates are

This will give you an idea of what transformation has taken place

In figure A, take point (1, 3)

The corresponding point in Figure B is (-2, -6)

This is a dilation of the point (1, 3) by a scale factor of -2 since -2 x (1, 2) = (-2, -6)

The other points are similarly dilated

(3, 3) ==> (-6, -6)

(3, 4) ==> (-6, -8)

Therefore the transformation is a dilation of Figure a by a scale factor of -2
