Question

What is the image of (1, 0) after a dilation by a scale factor of 4 centered at the
origin?

Answer 1

(4, 0)

Explanation:

You want the image point coordinates of (1, 0) dilated by a factor of 4 centered at the origin.

Dilation

When the dilation is centered at the origin, all coordinate values are multiplied by the scale factor.

(1, 0) ⇒ 4(1, 0) = (4, 0)

The image of the point is (4, 0).
