Answer:
see the explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
If the absolute value of the scale factor is less than 1, then the dilation produces a contraction of the original image
If the absolute value of the scale factor is greater than 1, then the dilation produces an expansion of the original image
so
Verify each value
1) -4
[tex]\left|-4\right|=4[/tex]
[tex]4> 1[/tex]
therefore
The dilation produces an expansion of the original image
2) 0.25
[tex]\left|0.25\right|=0.25[/tex]
[tex]0.25 < 1[/tex]
therefore
The dilation produces a contraction of the original image
3) -2/3
[tex]\left|-2/3\right|=2/3[/tex]
[tex]2/3 < 1[/tex]
therefore
The dilation produces a contraction of the original image
4) 2.3
[tex]\left|2.3\right|=2.3[/tex]
[tex]2.3 > 1[/tex]
therefore
The dilation produces an expansion of the original image
