Question

A geometric figure is dilated by a scale factor of 4/3with the origin as the center

of dilation. Which of the following algebraic representations best describes the
dilation?

Answer 1

Answer: Scale Factor (Dilation) The scale factor in the dilation of a mathematical object determines how much larger or smaller the image will be (compared to the original object). When the absolute value of the scale factor is greater than one, an expansion occurs.

Explanation:

A dilation is a transformation that produces an image that is the same shape as the original, but is a different size.
