Given:
The vertex of a triangle MNP are M(-4, 6), N(2, 6), and P(-1, 1).
The rule of dilation is:
[tex](x,y)\to (1.5x,1.5y)[/tex]
The image of triangle MNP after dilation is M'N'P'.
To find:
The coordinates of the endpoints of segment M'N'.
Solution:
The end points of MN are M(-4, 6) and N(2, 6).
The rule of dilation is:
[tex](x,y)\to (1.5x,1.5y)[/tex]
Using this rule, we get
[tex]M(-4,6)\to M'(1.5(-4),1.5(6))[/tex]
[tex]M(-4,6)\to M'(-6,9)[/tex]
And,
[tex]N(2,6)\to N'(1.5(2),1.5(6))[/tex]
[tex]N(2,6)\to N'(3,9)[/tex]
The endpoints of M'N' are M'(-6, 9) and N'(3, 9).
Therefore, the correct option is B.
