To find the coordinates of A' and B' after the dilation, we need to multiply the coordinates of each point by the scale factor.

For point A (-4, 1):
x-coordinate of A' = (scale factor) * x-coordinate of A = 2 * (-4) = -8
y-coordinate of A' = (scale factor) * y-coordinate of A = 2 * (1) = 2

Therefore, the coordinates of A' are (-8, 2).

For point B (-1, 3):
x-coordinate of B' = (scale factor) * x-coordinate of B = 2 * (-1) = -2
y-coordinate of B' = (scale factor) * y-coordinate of B = 2 * (3) = 6

Therefore, the coordinates of B' are (-2, 6).
