Answer:The point (5,0) dilated by a scale factor of 3 centered at the origin.
To find:
The coordinates of image.
Solution:
If a figure dilated by a scale factor of k centered at the origin, then the rule of transformation is
The point is dilated by a scale factor of 3 centered at the origin, then the rule of transformation is
The given point is (5,0). Putting x=5 and y=0, we get
Therefore, the image of (5,0) is (15,0).
