If the image is centered at the origin you can divide the terms of the image from the preimage to find the scale or ratio at which it was dilated. In this case, you will use the points of A because the point b does not matter in this case.

\frac{-6}{-4} = 1.5  and \frac{9}{6} = 1.5 so the image is dilated by a scale of 1.5

now that we know the scale we multiply the points of B by the scale to get the image.    1*1.5 = 1.5  and 4*1.5 = 6 so the image for B is (1.5, 6)

Answer:

To find the image of B, first find the scale factor for the dilation. The scale factor should be greater than 1 because the image of A is farther from the origin than A. Divide the coordinates of the image of A by the coordinates of A: –6/–4 = 3/2 and 9/6 = 3/2, so the scale factor is 3/2. Now, apply the dilation to B by multiplying the coordinates by 3/2 to get ((3/2)(1), (3/2)(4)), or (3/2, 6).

Lynna [10]

Answer:

DE = 6.3

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the midsegment of a triangle is half the length of the side it is parallel to.

Side DE is parallel to side CA and side CA is 12.6.

12.6/2 = 6.3

DE = 6.3

May u pls help whoever could help me please I beg you to please help me I know I'm dumb but please help me it will mean so much

The answer is C because if you think about it you can use a ruler and split the triangle at the h point you will find that it’s uneven so it’s most likely 6.43.
