The length of AB¯¯¯¯¯ is 5 units. What is the length of the image of the line segment after a dilation with a scale factor of 5/2?

Sarah10:

i know this is pretty simple but my other side tells me its not , my answer is 12.5 is this correct?

AngeI:

It seems correct, but in math I dont trust simple things so i am trying to prove it x'D

AngeI:

so it would be 5x 5/2 which is 25/2 and simplify that and you get 12.5

Sarah10:

AngeI:
