what is the scale factor of the dilation?\nscale factor =

Explanation:

Step1: Identify coordinates of points

Point $A$: $(4, 3)$; Point $A'$: $(8, 6)$

Step2: Calculate scale factor (x-coordinate)

$\text{Scale factor} = \frac{x_{A'}}{x_A} = \frac{8}{4} = 2$

Step3: Verify with y-coordinate

$\text{Scale factor} = \frac{y_{A'}}{y_A} = \frac{6}{3} = 2$
