6. One of the transformations above was a dilation by a scale factor of k. The scale factor is the multiplicative amount that the picture has been enlarged. To calculate it, divide any length on B by the corresponding length on A. Use your ruler to make these measurements and then calculate the scale factor of the dilation. Round to the nearest tenth.

When a figure or a shape is dilated, the size of its image will either be enlarged or compressed.

The scale of dilation from A to B is 1.5

See attachment for the image that completes the question.

Using a ruler, we have the following measurements

[tex]\mathbf{A = 1\ inch}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{B = 1.5\ inches}[/tex]

The scale factor (k) from A to B is:

[tex]\mathbf{k = \frac BA}[/tex]

This gives

[tex]\mathbf{k = \frac {1.5\ inches}{1\ inch}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{k = \frac {1.5}{1}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{k = 1.5}[/tex]

Hence, the scale factor (k) from A to B is 1.5
