Question:Choose the correct scale factor: A)2 B)1/2 C)3 D)1/3

Answer 1

The length of ND = 3 units

The length of N'D' = 6

6 / 3 = 2

The scale factor is 2

Answer 2

Answer:  A) 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The shape has been enlarge which means B and D are  ruled out because if a shape gets enlarge its scale factor has to be greater than 1.

We will use the coordinate of the image of D  to find the scale factor.

Pre-image:  (2,2)   Enlarge or image: (4,4)    

So as we can see to get from 2 to 4 you will have to multiply by 2. So the scale factor is  2
