Parallelogram JKLM has the coordinates J (0, 7), K (12, 7), L (10, 2), and M (-2, 2). Which of the following sets of points represents a dilation from the origin of parallelogram JKLM? A. J' (0, 28), K' (48, 28), L' (40, 8), M' (-8, 8) B. J' (4, 11), K' (16, 11), L' (14, 6), M' (2, 6) C. J' (0, 7), K' (48, 7), L' (40, 2), M' (-8, 2) D. J' (0, 28), K' (48, 7), L' (40, 2), M' (-2, 8) help me graph these ?

OpenStudy (perl):

a dilation means you multiply each point by a constant k

OpenStudy (perl):

so the plane transformation (a,b) -> ( ka, kb) represents a dilation

OpenStudy (perl):

so what happens if we multiply each point by 4

OpenStudy (perl):

(0,7) -> (0*4 , 7*4) (12,7) -> (12*4, 7*4) etc

OpenStudy (perl):

can you solve it now with these hints?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but what do i do with the results ?

OpenStudy (perl):

you multiply them,

OpenStudy (perl):

match the answer with the correct transformation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

( a lot of questions i know sorry ) How do i know which number to multiply them by ?
