Answer:

1 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Looking at Triangle A shows that it's numbers are much smaller than triangle B. This means it can't be a number below 1 times factor. so it can't be 2/3. When scaling it's about multiplication and not adding. So by this logic it can't be 3 or 5. 10 x 3 = 30 which isn't 15 and 10 x 5 = 50 which isn't 15. if we multiple it by 1.5 we will get the correct numbers. 1.5 x 6 = 9, 10 x 1.5 = 15 ✓

The scale factor of the dilation is 1 1/2

What is the scale factor of the dilation?

An image is dilated if the dimensions of the image is increased in a way that does not change the shape of the image. When an image is dilated, it is made larger.

scale factor of the dilation = length of the side of the larger image / length of the side of the smaller image

15 / 10 = 1 1/2
