Answer 1

Your answer is -0.5 hope it helps:)
Also, I changed my pfp so know it's not team 10 no more

Answer 2

Answer:

C'(-0.25,-0.25)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given triangle has vertices A(1,4), B(−2,4) , and C(−1,−1).

If a dilation with a scale factor of 0.25 and center at the origin is applied to the triangle, then we will have the mapping

$(x,y)\rightarrow (0.25x,0.25y)$

We apply this rule to obtain

$C(-1,-1)\rightarrow C'(0.25\times-1,0.25\times-1)$

$C(-1,-1)\rightarrow C'(-0.25,-0.25)$
