On a coordinate plane, which single transformation could map point A (3,-4) onto point A' (1.5,-2)? *

A dilation with rule:

Explanation:

A dilation is a non-rigid transformation that creates an image that is the same shape as the original but has a different size.

It uses a scale factor k such that

(x,y)= coordinates of original figure

(kx,ky) = corresponding coordinate in the image.

To transform: A (3,-4) onto point A' (1.5,-2).

Using scale factor k= , we have

Required rule:
