Answer 1

do u know how to do dialation

Answer 2

@cabrera_54_ are u here

Answer 3

no i dont @DaBest21

Answer 4

I never learned how to

Answer 5

ok well as u can see my graph is not that good but it will do the closer line is the first one the second one is twice as far this is not the answer but it is an example

Answer 6

the first point on the first line is half as far as the first point on the 2nd line

Answer 7

this is if it was dialated to 2

Answer 8

to get ur answer just do each part of the 2 points times 3 in other words do 1*3 for x and 4*3 for y for the first point (which is (1,4)) remeber coordinates look like this (x,y) for the second point (4,8) do 4*3 for x and 8*3 for y. @cabrera_54_
