To find the dilation of a point, we need to multiply the coordinates of the point by the dilation factor. In this case, the dilation factor is 0.5.
For point A (9, -3):
New x-coordinate = 0.5 * 9 = 4.5
New y-coordinate = 0.5 * -3 = -1.5
So the image of A under the dilation with center (0, 0) and factor 0.5 is (4.5, -1.5).
For point B (8, 5):
New x-coordinate = 0.5 * 8 = 4
New y-coordinate = 0.5 * 5 = 2.5
So the image of B under the dilation with center (0, 0) and factor 0.5 is (4, 2.5).
