Multiplying the number by 1,000
B² = 8b + 84
b² - 8b - 84 = 0
b = <u>-(-8) +/- √((8)² - 4(1)(-84))</u>
2(1)<u>
</u>b = <u>8 +/- √(64 + 336)</u>
2
b = <u>8 +/- √(400)
</u> 2<u>
</u>b = <u>8 +/- 20
</u> 2
b = 4 <u>+</u> 10
b = 4 + 10 b = 4 - 10
b = 14 b = -6

Since the scale factor is smaller than one (the original), the resulting image is smaller than the original.
Hope this helped, and feel free to ask more questions if needed(:
Fred. .9 is larger than .6 therefore, Fred walked a longer distance.
