Basically A’ is -3,2 and B’ is -4,1. :D

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 x and y coordinates of each point by the scale factor.
For point A (-6, 4):
newX = -6 * (1/2) = -3
newY = 4 * (1/2) = 2
Therefore, after the dilation, the coordinates of A are (-3, 2).
For point B (-8, 2):
newX = -8 * (1/2) = -4
newY = 2 * (1/2) = 1
Therefore, after the dilation, the coordinates of B are (-4, 1).
For point A (-6, 4):
newX = -6 * (1/2) = -3
newY = 4 * (1/2) = 2
Therefore, after the dilation, the coordinates of A are (-3, 2).
For point B (-8, 2):
newX = -8 * (1/2) = -4
newY = 2 * (1/2) = 1
Therefore, after the dilation, the coordinates of B are (-4, 1).
