What is the scale factor of a triangle with a vertex of a(-6,4) that has been dilated with the center of dilation at the origin so the vertex of its image is a’(-24,16)?

The scale factor is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets talk about dilation

- A dilation is a transformation that changes the size of a figure.

- It can become larger or smaller, but the shape of the

 figure does not change.

- The scale factor, measures how much larger or smaller

  the image will be

- If the scale factor greater than 1, then the image will be larger

- If the scale factor between 0 and 1, then the image will be smaller

* In the problem

- The vertex A of the triangle is (-6 , 4) and its image A' is (-24 , 16)

∵ -24 ÷ -6 = 4

∵ 16 ÷ 4 = 4

∴ The scale factor is 4

∵ 4 > 1

∴ The image of the triangle will be larger

* The scale factor is 4

to find the unit price, we must figure out the cost of one item (in this case one dish towel).   to do this, we divide the total price ($7.92) by the number of items bought (for this problem it is 8, because there are eight dish towels in one pack).  

$7.92/8 = $0.99

therefore, the unit price, or the price of one dish towel, is $0.99.

hope this !
