Question

What is the image of (2,1) after a dilation by a scale factor of 44 centered at the origin?

Answer 1

To find out the dilation at the origin, then we have to multiply the x and y values by the scale factor. So:

$\begin{gathered} x(44)=\text{ } \\ 2(44)=\text{ 88} \\ \\ y(44)= \\ 1(44)= \\ 44 \\ \\ Then\text{ the image of \lparen2,1\rparen is: \lparen88, 44\rparen} \end{gathered}$
