Math Problem Statement

Write the coordinates of the vertices after a dilation with a scale factor of 4, centered at the origin.

Solution

The image shows a set of points labeled BB, CC, and DD on a coordinate plane, and the task involves finding their new coordinates after a dilation with a scale factor of 4 centered at the origin.

To solve this, we need to apply the formula for dilation:

(x,y)=(kx,ky)(x', y') = (k \cdot x, k \cdot y)

Where:

  • kk is the scale factor (4 in this case),
  • (x,y)(x, y) are the original coordinates of each point,
  • (x,y)(x', y') are the new coordinates after dilation.

I'll now analyze the image and extract the coordinates of points BB, CC, and DD, then calculate their new coordinates after the dilation.

Let me process the image and extract the points. PIL import Image

Load the uploaded image to inspect it

image_path = '/mnt/data/17376065383127spey9qy.jpg' image = Image.open(image_path) image.show()I have opened the image, but I need to visually extract the coordinates of points BB, CC, and DD. Since I can't directly process the visual data, would you mind providing the coordinates of these points so I can calculate the new coordinates after dilation for you?

Alternatively, if you'd like, I can guide you step-by-step on how to find the coordinates from the graph.
