Answer:

A. -2

D. 2

Step-by-step explanation:

"Expansion" means the magnitude of the scale factor is more than 1. Your choices for that are -2 and 2.

(0.75 and |-0.75| are less than 1.)

Answer: A. −2​  and D. 2

Step-by-step explanation:

A scale factor (k) is number which is used to scale a figure.

It is basically used to either reduce or enlarge the size of the figure

  • When |k| = 1 then there is no change in size.
  • When |k|> 1 then there is an expansion .
  • When |k| < 1 then there is an reduction.

A dilation is transformation which uses scale factor to produce the images of same shape as original but of different size.

From the given options , |-2|>1 and |2|>1 where as |-0.75|=0.75<1 and |0.75|<1

Therefore the scale factors produce a expansion under a dilation of the original image are : -2 and 2.

Hence, the correct options are A. −2​  and D. 2  .
