To find the coordinates of the vertices \( A', B', C', \) and \( D' \) after performing a dilation with a scale factor of 3 centered at the origin, you multiply the coordinates of each vertex by the scale factor.

The coordinates of the original vertices are:

  • \( A(-5, 1) \)
  • \( B(-2, 1) \)
  • \( C(-2, 6) \)
  • \( D(-5, 6) \)

Let's calculate the coordinates after the dilation:

  1. For point \( A' \): \[ A' = (3 \times -5, 3 \times 1) = (-15, 3) \]

  2. For point \( B' \): \[ B' = (3 \times -2, 3 \times 1) = (-6, 3) \]

  3. For point \( C' \): \[ C' = (3 \times -2, 3 \times 6) = (-6, 18) \]

  4. For point \( D' \): \[ D' = (3 \times -5, 3 \times 6) = (-15, 18) \]

Thus, the coordinates of the dilated points are:

  • \( A'(-15, 3) \)
  • \( B'(-6, 3) \)
  • \( C'(-6, 18) \)
  • \( D'(-15, 18) \)

The correct response is: A′(−15, 3), B′(−6, 3), C′(−6, 18), and D′(−15, 18).
