Answer 5

Can we assume an Origin of Dilation at (0,0)?

Answer 6

I guess? I'm really not great with this concept.

Answer 7

Calculate the distance of each from the Origin (0,0).

Answer 8

Would X' be.. \[X'(\frac{ 14 }{ 3},\frac{ 4 }{ 3 })\]

Answer 9

Okay, fine. Just do the coordinates. I'm okay with that. Two more to go.

Answer 10

\[(-2,\frac{ 16 }{ 3 }) and (-\frac{ 8 }{ 3 },4)?\]

Answer 11

I think we're done. Good work.

Answer 12

Thank you!!
