A dilation is which of the following: 

• An enlargement
• A reduction
• Either an enlargement or a reduction
• Neither an enlargement or a reduction

If the scale factor is less than one, the new figure will be

• an enlargement
• a reduction
• a scale factor
• bigger

If the scale factor is greater than one, the new figure will be

• a reduction
• an enlargement
• a scale
• not proportional

• (-3, 3)
• (-12, 12)
