To determine the coordinates of points A' and B' after a dilation with a scale factor of 5 about the origin, we use the formula for dilation:

(x,y)=(kx,ky)

where k is the scale factor.

For point A(1, 2): A=(51,52)=(5,10)

For point B(−2, −1): B=(52,51)=(10,5)

Therefore, the coordinates after the dilation are:

  • A' = (5, 10)
  • B' = (-10, -5)

The correct response is: A′ (5, 10) and B′ (−10, −5).
