Polygon ABCDE is dilated by a scale factor of 3 with the center of dilation at the origin to create polygon A′B′C′D′E′. If the endpoints of BC are B(3, 5) and C(5, 10), what is the slope of B'C' ?

what is the answer choices

I dont have any

The question or problem ask to calculate the slope of the said dilated polygon which it was dilated by a scale factor of 3. In my own calculation the slope of the BC is 5/2 or -5/-2 and the dilated polygon has a the same slope of the original polygon. I hope this would help

You are correct thanks
