Atriangle has the vertices a(-7, 8), b(1, -7), and c(7,6). after a dilation, the vertices of the image are a(-28, 32).
b'(4, -28), and c'(28, 24). what is the scale factor of the dilation?
a .4 b.1/4 c.8 d.2

the answer is A.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Dilation in this context is the transformation is an object into a larger one.

ABC is transformed to A'B'C'

To get the scale factor, we divide the coordinates of A'B'C' by ABC

i.e

A'/A = -28/-7, 32/8 = 4

Or

B'/B = 4/1, -28/-7 = 4

Or

C'/C = 28/7, 24/6 = 4

answer: a and c are correct

step-by-step explanation:

the +5 is the vertical translation

the added negative symbol in front is the reflection over the y-axis
