Sometimes a dilation is an enlargement, and sometimes it is a reduction. explain what types of numbers for scale factors causes each.

If the scale factor is greater than 1 then the image is an enlargement .

If the scale factor is smaller than 1 then the image is an reduction.

Step-by-step explanation:

A dilation a transformation that changes the size of the figure in certain ways by using scale factor .

It stretches or shrinks the actual figure. It produces similar figures.

correct answer is infinitely many solutions

step-by-step explanation:

2(2x + 3) = -4 + 2(2x + 5)

solving the above equation:

4x + 6 = -4 +4x +10

combining like terms

4x -4x = -4+10-6

0=0

since both sides are 0=0, we end up into true statement it means it has infinite many solutions.

so correct answer is infinitely many solutions
