OpenStudy (anonymous):

do you have original points?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

First, figure out if its enlargement/shrink : Is the image big/small compared to the preimage ?

OpenStudy (highschoolmom2010):

the preimage is smaller than the image

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Yes, or the image is much bigger than the preimage. so its an enlargement. So strike off last two options.

OpenStudy (highschoolmom2010):

ok

OpenStudy (highschoolmom2010):

so now what

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Look at H :(1, 1) say after transformation, it goes to (x, y) : T(1,1) --> (x, y) after dilation by a factor of 2, it goes to : D2 (x, y) --> (2, -10)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

D2 (x, y) --> (2, -10) 2x = 2 2y = -10 solve x and y

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

you've closed that question, that means you figured out how to do this ? :)

OpenStudy (highschoolmom2010):

yes

OpenStudy (highschoolmom2010):

yes |dw:1381865577248:dw| that was the solution
