Question

segment AB is dilated from the origin to create segment A prime B prime at A' (0, 8) and B' (8, 12). What scale factor was segment AB dilated by?

1/2
2
3
4

Answer 1

Doesn’t tell us what the original coordinates of AB were

That being said, since it’s dilated by the origin, you can take the coordinates of A’ and divide them by the coordinate of A to get the dilation factor
