Answer: y = 2x + 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Here the equation of line,
y = 2x + 1
y-intercept of the line is, (0, 1)
And, the slope of the line is 2.
Since, If a point (x,y) is dilated by a scale factor k about a point (a,b),
Then transformed point are get by,
![(x,y)\rightarrow (k(x-a)+a, k(y-b)+b)](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%28x%2Cy%29%5Crightarrow%20%28k%28x-a%29%2Ba%2C%20k%28y-b%29%2Bb%29)
Thus, The transformed point of point (0,1) when dilation is occur by the scale factor 2 about the point (0,-4),
![(0,-4)\rightarrow (2(0-0)+0, 2(1+4)-4)](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%280%2C-4%29%5Crightarrow%20%282%280-0%29%2B0%2C%202%281%2B4%29-4%29)
![(0,-4)\rightarrow (0, 6)](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%280%2C-4%29%5Crightarrow%20%280%2C%206%29)
Thus, the point of the new line is (0,6)
And, the slope of the new line is 2 ( because in the dilation, the slope of the line does not change)
Thus, the equation of new line,
(y - 6) = 2 (x - 0)
y - 6 = 2x
y = 2x + 6
