To find the coordinates of A' and B' after a dilation with a scale factor of 1/2 centered at the origin, we can multiply the coordinates of A and B by the scale factor.
A' = (1/2) * A = (1/2) * (-6, 4) = (-6/2, 4/2) = (-3, 2)
B' = (1/2) * B = (1/2) * (-8, 2) = (-8/2, 2/2) = (-4, 1)
Therefore, the coordinates of A' are (-3, 2) and the coordinates of B' are (-4, 1).
