So, we know the center is at -1, -3, hmmm what's the radius anyway?
well, the radius will be the distance from the center to any point on the circle, it just so happen that we know -7, -5 is on it, thus
![\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points}\\\\ \begin{array}{ccccccccc} &&x_1&&y_1&&x_2&&y_2\\ % (a,b) &&(~ -1 &,& -3~) % (c,d) &&(~ -7 &,& -5~) \end{array} \\\\\\ d = \sqrt{( x_2- x_1)^2 + ( y_2- y_1)^2} \\\\\\ r=\sqrt{[-7-(-1)]^2+[-5-(-3)]^2}\implies r=\sqrt{(-7+1)^2+(-5+3)^2} \\\\\\ r=\sqrt{36+4}\implies r=\sqrt{40}\\\\ -------------------------------](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbf%20~~~~~~~~~~~~%5Ctextit%7Bdistance%20between%202%20points%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C%0A%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccccccccc%7D%0A%26%26x_1%26%26y_1%26%26x_2%26%26y_2%5C%5C%0A%25%20%20%28a%2Cb%29%0A%26%26%28~%20-1%20%26%2C%26%20-3~%29%20%0A%25%20%20%28c%2Cd%29%0A%26%26%28~%20-7%20%26%2C%26%20-5~%29%0A%5Cend%7Barray%7D%0A%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%0Ad%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%7B%28%20x_2-%20x_1%29%5E2%20%2B%20%28%20y_2-%20y_1%29%5E2%7D%0A%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%0Ar%3D%5Csqrt%7B%5B-7-%28-1%29%5D%5E2%2B%5B-5-%28-3%29%5D%5E2%7D%5Cimplies%20r%3D%5Csqrt%7B%28-7%2B1%29%5E2%2B%28-5%2B3%29%5E2%7D%0A%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%0Ar%3D%5Csqrt%7B36%2B4%7D%5Cimplies%20r%3D%5Csqrt%7B40%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C%0A-------------------------------)
Answer:
9.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that dimensions of original photo are 4 inches by 6 inches. We want the photo on the poster to be of dimensions 3 feet by 4 1/2 feet.
First of all we will convert dimensions of poster from feet to inches.

Now let us compare sides of our original photo with corresponding sides of poster.
Now let us compare the second pair of corresponding sides.

We have seen that sides of poster are 9 times the sides of our original photo, therefore, the scale factor of this dilation is 9.
Easier than it looks, all you have to do is first subtract 13 from 299. You should get 286. Then, you just divide this number by two to get 143. Finally, since it asks for ZENA'S average, you add the 13 back to 143 to get the final answer of the average number of pins Zena took down, which is 156!
