Answer:

Rule: dilation about the origin by a scale factor of 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for QRST and Q'R'S'T

Required

The dilation rule

First, we calculate the scale factor (k)

From the attachment, we have:


QR = 4


Q'R' = 8

k, is then calculated as:


k = (Q'R')/(QR)


k = (8)/(4)


k =2

Hence, QRST is dilated by a factor of 2
