Given that point A on the graph will be dilated with a scale factor of 2 about the point (-1, 2).
The coordinate of point A is (3, 4)
step 1: Find the vertical and horizontal distance of A(3, 4) from the point (-1, 2)
vertical distance (y) = (4 -2) = 2
horizontal distance (x) = (3 - (-1) ) = 3+ 1 = 4
step 2: multiply the distances by the scale factor 2
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{vertical distance (y) = 2}\times2=4 \\ \text{Horizontal distance (x) =}2\times4\text{ = 8} \\ \end{gathered}[/tex]
Therefore, the dilated point is:
[tex](x,y)\to(8,4)[/tex]
