Let's begin by listing out the information given to us:

The vertices of the triangle is given as:


(0,0),(0,5),(-4,2)

Dilation by a scale factor of 2 means the triangle will be enlarged, the coordinate of the vertices become:


\begin{gathered} (0,0)\rightarrow2(0,0)=(0,0) \\ (0,5)\rightarrow2(0,5)=(0,10) \\ (-4,2)\rightarrow2(-4,2)=(-8,4)_{} \end{gathered}

We will then graph this
