Trapezoid DEFG is dilated according to the rule
DO,4(x,y) to form the image trapezoid D'E'F'G', which is shown on the graph.

On a coordinate plane, trapezoid D prime E prime F prime G prime has points (negative 8, 8), (negative 3, 8), (negative 5, 4), and (negative 8, 4).

What are the coordinates of point G of the pre-image?

(-2, 1)
(-4, 2)
(-12, 0)
(-32, 16)

A dilation with center O and scale factor 4 multiplies each pre-image coordinate by 4. To find the pre-image, divide the image coordinates by 4.

G' = (-8, 4) → G = (-8/4, 4/4) = (-2, 1).

Answer: (-2, 1)
