An image point of a tranformation has coordinates Y'(2, -4). If the pre-image point had coordinates Y(6, -12) what was the transformation and scale factor?
a. reflection with scale factor 3
b. reflection with scale factor 1/3
c. dilation with scale factor 3
d. dilation with scale factor 1/3
dilation with a scale factor 1/3. the original points are three times as big as the transformed points, so the transformation needed to reduce the size by three times smaller.
