If the original figure is dilated by a scale factor of 5, the equation that shows the relation between the vertices of the dilated figure (new coordinates) and the vertices of the original figure (old coordinates) can be given as:
(new x-coordinate, new y-coordinate) = (old x-coordinate * scale factor, old y-coordinate * scale factor)
In this case, since the scale factor is 5, the equation would be:
(new x-coordinate, new y-coordinate) = (5 * old x-coordinate, 5 * old y-coordinate)
which equation shows the relation between the vertices of a dilated figure and the vertices of the original figure when the original figure is dilated using a scale factor of 5
