Question

What are the coordinates of the image of the point (–3, 6) after a dilation with a center of (0, 0) and scale factor of 1/3?

Answer 1

(-1,2 ) ?

Answer 2

A dilation is a type of transformation that changes the size of the image. The scale factor, sometimes called the scalar factor, measures how much larger or smaller the image is.

(-3, 6)

(-3*1/3, 6*1/3) = (-1, 2)

Dilations can also reduce the size of shape. This example demonstrations a dilation of 1/3. Any time that the scale factor is a fraction, the image will get smaller.

Answer 3

multiply both by 1/3

Answer 4

What sparrow said.

Answer 5

@DeadPooI how are you doing man :D
