Respuesta :

we know that

The scale factor is equal to

[tex]Scale\ Factor=\frac{F'G'}{FG}[/tex]

we have

[tex]F'G'=8\ units\\FG=2\ units[/tex]

substitute

[tex]Scale\ Factor=\frac{8}{2}[/tex]

[tex]Scale\ Factor=4[/tex]

therefore

the answer is

[tex]4[/tex]

Answer: 4

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given picture, To find scale factor between figures, find two corresponding sides and write the ratio of the two sides.

The value of y is same through the distance of F to G.

So, FG= change in x coordinates

FG=[tex]|-2-(-4)|=|-2|=2[/tex] units

Similarly , F'G'=[tex]|3-(-5)|=|8|=8[/tex] units

Let k be the scale factor of the dilation.

The scale factor of the dilation is given by :-

[tex]k=\frac{F'G'}{FG}\\\Rightarrow\ k=\frac{8}{2}=4[/tex]
