Answer:
On a coordinate plane, triangle A B C has points (4, 4), (7, 8), (10, 4). ... Hence, the scale factor is 2 and one-half( ).
Step-by-step explanation:
The center of dilation is a fixed point in the plane. If the scale factor is greater than 1, the image is an enlargement (a stretch). If the scale factor is between 0 and 1, the image is a reduction (a shrink). If the scale factor is 1, the figure and the image are congruent.
graph B ( the lower one )
for a function to be defined there can only be one value of y for each value of x
graph A has more than 1 value of y for given values of x
for example ( - 1, 4 ) and ( - 1, - 4 ) thus is not a function
graph B only has 1 value of y for a given value of x thus is a function
