Answer 1

To perform a dilation of points A(2, -5) and B(-3, -2) with a scale factor of 4 and a center point of dilation at the origin (0, 0), we use the following formula for dilation:

\[
A' = (kx, ky)
\]

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

For point A(2, -5):

\[
A' = (4 \cdot 2, 4 \cdot -5) = (8, -20)
\]

For point B(-3, -2):

\[
B' = (4 \cdot -3, 4 \cdot -2) = (-12, -8)
\]

Thus, the coordinates after the dilation are:

- \(A' (8, -20)\)
- \(B' (-12, -8)\)

The correct response is:

**A′ (8, −20) and B′ (−12, −8)**.
