Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Ur answer should be B
Answer is choice C
"Dilate with a scale factor of two" means "multiply each coordinate by two"
A = (2,3) turns into A' = (4,6)
B = (3,5) turns into B' = (6,10)
C = (7,4) turns into C' = (14,8)
Side Note: this quick shortcut only works if the center of dilation is the origin (0,0). If the center of dilation isn't the origin, then you will have to do a translation (shifting) before you can use the trick, and then you'll have to shift back. The idea of the shifting is so that the center of dilation becomes the origin on a temporary basis. Because no mention is made of the reference center, it is assumed to be the origin by default.
To figure out this pattern, let's see if there's a constant rule that this sequence follows.
From 24 to 21, you're subtracting 3.
Let's try n-3, and fill in the blanks as we go.
24 - 3 = 21.
21 - 3 = 18.
18 - 3 = 15.
15 - 3 = 12.
12 - 3 = 9.
It seems that n-3 works as a rule, so your rule is:
N-3.
The missing blanks are:
18, 12, and 9.
I hope this helps!
I believe the answer is -9<span />
