Answer:

Explanation:

Dilating with a scale factor of 3 centered at the origin means we multiply all the coordinates by 3.

  1. (0,2) maps onto (0,6).
  2. (0,4) maps onto (0,12).
  3. (3,2) maps onto (9,6).
  4. (3,4) maps onto (9,12).

Therefore, the answers are the second option and the sixth option.
