The answer is a because when u divide that number by 6 u get a whole number
Answer: 5/9
explanation: the coefficient is in front of the variable x, which is 5/9
When dilation is about the origin, as it is here in every case, the image point coordinates are the original (pre-image) coordinates multiplied by the scale factor.
1. Multiply every coordinate value by 5:
... W' = (-5, 10), X' = (-15, -5), Y' = (25, -5), Z' = (15, 10)
2. Multiply every coordinate value by 1/3:
... A' = (-2, 5), B' = (0, 5/3), C' = (1, 10/3)
3. A' = (2, 8), B' = (6, 2), C' = (2, 2)
4. The image coordinates are 5 times the original coordinates, so ...
... the scale factor of the dilation is 5.
182.5 + 50 = 232.5. 267.5 was spent
