A figure has been dilated from the origin by a scale factor of one seventh. if another dilation from the origin maps the dilated image back onto the original figure, what is its scale factor?

To map the dilated image back  onto the original figure, the scale factor needed is 7.

Transformation is the movement of a point from its initial location to a new location. Types of transformation are rotation, reflection, translation and dilation.

Dilation is the increase or decrease in the size of a figure by a factor.

If a figure is dilated from the origin by a scale factor of one seventh, it is given by:

(x, y) ⇒ [(1/7)x, (1/7)y]

To map the dilated image back  onto the original figure, the scale factor needed is 7. Hence:

[(1/7)x, (1/7)y] ⇒ (x, y)
