Question 172855: the scale factor is 2 the coordinates of a,b,c is a:(-8,-3) b: (-3,0) c:(-2,3)
what are the new coordinates now
the scale factor is 3. what are the coordinates a,b,c

divide by 2 the original coordinates would be a(-4,-3/2) b (-3/2,0) c (-1,3/2)
:
a scale factor of 3 would produce (a(-12,-9/2) b (-9/2,0) c (-3,9/2)
simply by multiplying by 3
