Question

Which rule yields the dilation of the figure BCDE centered at the origin?

A) (x, y) → (2x, 2y)
B) (x, y) → (0.5x, 0.5y)
C) (x, y) → (x + 2, y + 2)
D) (x, y) → (x + 0.5, y + 0.5)

Answer 1

B (x,y) > (0.5x, 0.5y)

Explanation:

Answer 2

B (x, y) - (0.5x,0.5y) as all four sides have halved in length
