Answer:

option 2

Step-by-step explanation:

consider the coordinates A (- 3, 4 ) and A' (- 1, \frac{4}{3} )

since the dilatation is centred at the origin, then corresponding coordinates are multiples/ divisors of each other, then image to original gives scale factor.

scale factor = \frac{A'}{A} = \frac{-1}{-3} = \frac{1}{3} and \frac{\frac{4}{3} }{4} = \frac{1}{3}

similarly B (1, - 2 ) and B' (\frac{1}{3}, - \frac{2}{3} )

\frac{\frac{1}{3} }{1} = \frac{1}{3} and \frac{-\frac{2}{3} }{-2} = \frac{1}{3}
