Find a dilation of 0.25 with Center (0,0) for the following points if A (-3,-1) B (7,-8)
To find the dilation of 0.25 with Center (0,0) for the points A(-3,-1) and B(7,-8), we need to multiply the coordinates of each point by the dilation factor.
For point A:
The x-coordinate of A after dilation is (-3) * 0.25 = -0.75
The y-coordinate of A after dilation is (-1) * 0.25 = -0.25
So, after dilation, point A becomes A'(-0.75, -0.25).
For point B:
The x-coordinate of B after dilation is (7) * 0.25 = 1.75
The y-coordinate of B after dilation is (-8) * 0.25 = -2
So, after dilation, point B becomes B'(1.75, -2).
Therefore, the dilation of 0.25 with Center (0,0) for the points A(-3,-1) and B(7,-8) is A'(-0.75, -0.25) and B'(1.75, -2).
