∆JKL has vertices J(25,25), K (15,10), and L (20,10). What are the vertices of the image after a dilation with a scale factor of 1/5 using the origin as the center of dilation

Answer:

J'(5, 5), K'(3, 2), L'(4, 2)

Explanation:

Each individual coordinate value is multiplied by the scale factor.

(x, y) ⇒ (x/5, y/5)

J(25, 25) ⇒ J'(5, 5)

K(15, 10) ⇒ K'(3, 2)

L(20, 10) ⇒ L'(4, 2)
