Question

find the coordinates of w' after a dilation of 3/2 about the origin. write your answer in the form of (a,b). The coordinates for w is (-2,0).​

Answer 1

(-3, 0)

Explanation:

Dilation means that the position of the point is scaled up or down. Simply multiply the coordinates by the scale to get the new position.

w' = 3/2 w

w' = (3/2 × -2, 3/2 × 0)

w' = (-3, 0)
