Answer:

See attached

Explanation:

You want the graphed figure dilated by different scale factors around different center points.

Dilation

To find the image of a dilated point, figure how far it is from the center of dilation, then multiply that distance by the scale factor. Plot the image point at that distance from the center of dilation in the same direction as the original point.

Dilation by a factor of 1/2 cuts all the distances in half. 2 grid squares become 1; 4 grid squares become 2.

Dilation by a factor of 2 multiplies all the distances by 2. 2 grid squares become 4; 4 grid squares become 8.

Graph

In the attached graph, the points are labeled with subscripts a, b, c according to the dilation they correspond to. Note that the center of dilation doesn't move, so Q and Q_a are the same point, and S and S_c are the same point.
