Answer 1

To find the coordinates of points A' and B' after dilation with a scale factor of 2 centered at the origin, we apply the dilation formula:

\[
A' = (kx, ky) \quad \text{and} \quad B' = (kx, ky)
\]

where \( k \) is the scale factor and \( (x, y) \) are the original coordinates.

For point A(3, 7):

\[
A' = (2 \cdot 3, 2 \cdot 7) = (6, 14)
\]

For point B(4, 9):

\[
B' = (2 \cdot 4, 2 \cdot 9) = (8, 18)
\]

So the coordinates after dilation are:

\[
A'(6, 14) \quad \text{and} \quad B'(8, 18)
\]

The correct response is:

**A′(6,14) and B′(8,18)**.
