Hi :)

Since we are dilating with the scale factor we would first identify the point and multiply the scale factor with each value.

We see that the point is `(-3,-2)` so we multiply it by \(\large\bf{\frac{7}{4}}\).

\(\huge\bf{(-3 \times \frac{7}{4}, -2 \times \frac{7}{4})}\)

Oh okay. I'm sorry for bugging you but is that the final step? As you can see I'm very confused haha. Thanks for helping me by the way!!!

Answer 4

I got 5.25 and -3.5

Answer 5

-5.25 sorry
