Line AB is on coordinate plane and does not pass through the origin line AB is dilated with a scale factor of 3 and a center of dilation at the origin to create line A'B' describes the effect of the dilation online AB in particular make sure to describe the relative location and size of line A'B compared to line A'B compared to line AB if line AB was dilated with a scale factor of 1/3 how would your answer Change

When line AB is dilated with a scale factor of 3 and a center of dilation at the origin, line A'B' will be three times longer than line AB, and it will also pass through the origin. Line A'B' will be an elongated version of line AB that starts from the origin and extends in the same direction as line AB.

If line AB was dilated with a scale factor of 1/3, line A'B' would be one-third as long as line AB. It would be a shorter version of line AB that starts from the origin and extends in the same direction as line AB.
