Good evening ,
Answer:
In this case the dilation is a reduction (as you can see the image triangle is smaller than the original triangle)
and also the scale factor = OA’/OA = 2/6 = 1/3
since -1 < 1/3 < 1 then it’s a reduction.
Step-by-step explanation:
Look at the photo below for more details (notice OA’ and OA).

<u>Let's solve this problem step-by-step</u>
<u>Let's set</u>:
2x + 6y = 36 -- equation 1
x + 4y = 20 -- equation 2
(equation 2) * 2
2x + 8y = 40 -- equation 3
(equation 3) - (equation 1)
2y = 4
y = 2 -- equation 4
Plug (equation 4)'s value of y into (equation 2)
x + 4(2) = 20
x = 20 - 8
x = 12
<u>Thus x = 12 and y = 2</u>
<u>Let's check, by substituting these values</u>

<u>Answer: x = 12 and y = 2</u>
Hope that helps!
I think its ether 2 5/2 or 2 3/2
