Question

W′X′Y′Z′ is a dilation image of WXYZ. Which is the correct description of the dilation?

Answer 1

Answer:

D. A reduction with a scale factor of $\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We know for sure it is a reduction because the image, W'X'Y'Z', is smaller than the pre-image WXYZ. Because it is a reduction, the scale factor must be less than 1, so the only option can be D. Both B and C say enlargement and A says it is a scale factor of 2.
