Assume that the initial coordinates are (x,y) and that the dilated coordinates are (x',y').
The dilation is therefore:
(x,y) ............> (x',y')
Now, let's assume that the dilation factor is k.
Therefore:
x' = kx
y' = ky
Based on the above, all the student has to do is get the initial coordinates and the final ones and then substitute in any of the above two equations to get the value of k.
Example:
Assume an original point at (2,4) is dilated to coordinates (4,8). Find the dilation factor.
Assume the dilation coefficient is k.
(x,y) are (2,4) and (x',y') are (4,8)
Therefore:
x' = kx .........> 4 = k*2 ..........> k = 2
or:
y' = ky ..........> 8 = k*4 .........> k = 2
Based on the above, the dilation coefficient would be 2.
Hope this helps :)
The answer is a because it’s showing that he spends 3.75$ on each sheet of paper and x represents how many he can buy. It also shows that it can be less or equal to 20$

I think this is your full question, right?
<em>Cindy and Zoey work at a store. Both girls earn $6.25 per hour. During a normal week Cindy works 15 hours and Zoey works 20 hours. The expression 6.25(15) + 6.25(20) can be used to calculate the total amount of money that the girls earned in one week. Which expression shows another way to calculate the amount of money the girls earn in one week? </em>
My answer:
The expression shows another way must be equal to: <em>6.25(15) + 6.25(20) </em>
<=> 6.25 (15+20)
Because both girls earn the same per hour.
No ❤️ hahaha i can’t see anything
