Answer 1

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

\[ A' = (k \cdot x_A, k \cdot y_A) \] \[ B' = (k \cdot x_B, k \cdot y_B) \]

where \( k \) is the scale factor, and \( (x_A, y_A) \) and \( (x_B, y_B) \) are the coordinates of points \( A \) and \( B \).

Given:

• \( A(3, 7) \)
• \( B(4, 9) \)
• Scale factor \( k = 2 \)

Calculating the coordinates:

1. For point \( A \): \[ A' = (2 \cdot 3, 2 \cdot 7) = (6, 14) \]

2. For point \( B \): \[ B' = (2 \cdot 4, 2 \cdot 9) = (8, 18) \]

Thus, the coordinates after dilation are:

• \( A'(6, 14) \)
• \( B'(8, 18) \)

The correct response is: A′(6,14) and B′(8,18).
