Question

6Which of the following algebraic representations would give a dilation with a scale factor between 1 A (x,y)->(x+1.8,y+1.8) (B) (x,y)->(2.3x,2.3y) (c) (x,y)->(1.5x,1.5y) (D) (x,y)->((x)/

Answer 1

The correct algebraic representation for a dilation with a scale factor between 1 is (x,y) → (1.5x,1.5y).

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct algebraic representation for a dilation with a scale factor between 1 is option (C) (x,y) → (1.5x,1.5y).

In a dilation, each coordinate is multiplied by the same scale factor. In this case, the scale factor is 1.5, so each x-coordinate is multiplied by 1.5 and each y-coordinate is multiplied by 1.5.

For example, if we have a point (2,3), the dilation with a scale factor of 1.5 would transform it to (3,4.5).
