The dashed triangle is the image of the solid triangle. The center of dilation is (−5, 7) .
2 answers:
Before dilation:
the height of the triangle is h₁ = 7 - (-1) = 8
the width of the triangle is w₁ = 7 - (-5) = 12
After dilation:
the height of the is h₂ = 9-7 = 2
the width of the triangle is w₂ = -5 - (-8) = 3
The scale factor is h₂/h₁ = 2/8 = 1/4 = 0.25
Also, the scale factor is w₂/w₁ = 3/12 = 1/4 = 0.25

Answer:
D.
Step-by-step explanation:
We graph the points on the graph. The graph is attached.
Let us take two points (1, 14) and (15, 1), and calculate the slope between them <em>(we choose these points because the line passing through them will be the best fit for all points) </em>
Thus we have the equation
Let us now calculate from the point
So the equation we get is
Let us now turn to the choices given and see which choice is closest to our equation: we see that choice D. is the closest one, so we pick it.
