Plz help I dont know this answer do if u can help plz do

Answer 1

Answer:

The scale factor is 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The scale factor is equal to divide the length side of the image (square A'B'C'D') by the length side of the pre-image (square ABCD)

Let

z ---> the scale factor

x----> the length side of the image (square AB'C'D')

y----> the length side of the pre-image (square ABCD)

$z=\frac{x}{y}$

we have

$x=2\ units\\y=6\ units$

substitute

$z=\frac{2}{6}$

simplify

$z=\frac{1}{3}$

The scale factor is less than 1, so the dilation is a reduction

therefore

The scale factor is 1/3
