A figure is dilated by a scale factor of 3. What happens to every distance from the center of dilation?

The distance is multiplied by 3.

(7,-3)

200

What happens to the coordinates when you reflect a point over the x-axis?

x-coordinates stays the same and the y-coordinates changes sign.

A point (2, -3) is dilated by 4, reflected over the y-axis, then translated right 3 and up 5. What are the coordinates for each transformation?

Dilate (8, -12)

Reflect (-8, 12)

Translate (-5, -7)

Artur says that dilating a figure by a scale factor of 3/2  will produce an image that is smaller than the pre-image. Is Artur's claim correct? Explain your thinking.

No, Artur's claim is incorrect. 

3/2 = 1.5 which is greater than 1.
