Answer:

Move the center of circle A to (1,7), then multiply its radius by 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Moving the circles to the same center would make them concentric. Then, by multiplying the radius of Circle A by 3, the circle is dilated to the exact size of circle B, since its radius is 9. This shows that Circle B is proportional to Circle A, thus they are similar.
