Answer 1

To find the coordinates of points \( A' \) and \( B' \) after a dilation with a scale factor of 2 from the origin, we can use the following formula for dilation:

\[
(x', y') = (kx, ky)
\]

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

**For point A \((-4, 1)\):**

\[
A' = (2 \times -4, 2 \times 1) = (-8, 2)
\]

**For point B \((-1, 3)\):**

\[
B' = (2 \times -1, 2 \times 3) = (-2, 6)
\]

Thus, the coordinates after dilation are:

- \( A' = (-8, 2) \)
- \( B' = (-2, 6) \)

The correct response is:

A′ (−8, 2) and B′ (−2, 6)
