(8,16)

Answer 1

To find the coordinates of the dilated point A' when point A (the center of dilation) is at (2, 4) and the scale factor is 4, we first note that the center of dilation does not change its position. The coordinates of point A' will be the same as point A.

Thus, the location of A' is (2, 4).

So the correct response is:

(2, 4)
