Dilate the figure by a scale factor of 3 with the origin as the center of dilation. What are the coordinates of the image?
A(3,3) B(6,6) C(9,3)

• A'(9,9) B'(18,18) C'(27,9)
• A'(6,6) B'(9,9) C'(12,6)
• A'(0,0) B'(3,3) C'(6,0)
• A'(1,1) B'(2,2) C'(3,1)

How do you write the algebraic notation when the scale factor is 3?

• (x, y) --> (1/3x, 1/3y)

• (x, y) --> (-3x, -3y)

• (x, y) --> (x + 3, y + 3)

• (x, y) --> (3x, 3y)
