Example Question - dilation transformation point

Dilation Transformation of a Point

The question asks for the image of the point (-6, -7) after a dilation by a scale factor of 5 centered at the origin. To compute the image of a point after a dilation centered at the origin, you multiply each coordinate of the point by the scale factor. Here, the scale factor is 5. Multiply each coordinate of the point (-6, -7) by 5: - The x-coordinate: -6 * 5 = -30 - The y-coordinate: -7 * 5 = -35 Therefore, the image of the point (-6, -7) after the dilation is (-30, -35).
