Well the midpoint formula to find the coordinates is ( (x₂ + x₁)/2 , (y₂ -+ y₁)/2 )
Basically you find the average of each points to find the midpoint. Well we already have the midpoint so  we plug our numbers in with variables to find the other point. Let's start with the x value of coordinate L:
(2 + x₁)/2 = -4    the 2 came from point J and the -4 came from the midpoint k.
2+ x₁ = -8
x₁ = -10        this is the  x coordinate of point L. Let's find the y
(-1 + y₁)/2 = 3
-1 + y₁ = 6
y₁ = 7      this is the y coordinate of L
L's coordinate is (-10, 7)

Triangle ABC is being dilated with the center of dilation at the origin. The image of C, point C' has coordinates of (7.2, 3.6).
MAXImum [283]

General Idea:

When we are given a point P(x, y) centered at origin with a scale factor of k, then the dilated point will be given by P' (kx, ky)

Applying the concept:

In the diagram given, the coordinate of C is (6, 3). Triangle ABC is being dilated with the center of dilation at the origin. The image of C, point C' has coordinates of (7.2, 3.6).

If C (x, y) centered at origin with a scale factor of k, then the dilated point will be given by C' (kx, ky)

We know x = 6 & kx = 7.2

Substituting 6 for x in the equation kx = 7.2, we get 6k = 7.2.

Dividing 6 on both sides\frac{6k}{6}=\frac{7.2}{6}

Simplifying fractions on both sidesk=1.2

Point A from the diagram is (-3, 3)

x-coordinate of A' = kx=1.2 * -3 = -3.6

y-coordinate of A' = ky =1.2*3=3.6

Point A' is given by (-3.6, 3.6)

Conclusion:

<u>Scale factor of dilation is 1.2</u>

<u>The coordinates of point A' is (-3.6, 3.6)</u>
