I need help on this 6th grade math problem
2 answers:
Answer: B) 12.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Start by isolating x by subtracting 2.5 from both sides
This reads as "x is less than 17.5"
D can be eliminated because it is greater than 17.5
C can be eliminated because 17.5 can't be less than itself
So the answer must be B since it is less than 17.5 and greater than A

======================================================
Explanation:
The x coordinate of the preimage point Q is x = 6.
The x coordinate of the image point Q' is x = 21.
The ratio of image over preimage is 21/6 = (3*7)/(3*2) = 7/2
You'll get this same value if you do the same steps with the y coordinates.
Therefore, the scale factor is 7/2 and the dilation rule is
Note: 7/2 = 3.5
