Answer:

The scale factor is 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to get the scale factor used in dilating the original segment

As we can see;

(9,3) turned to (3,1)

looking at this , we can see that both coordinate values were divided by 3

So what this mean is that the particular scale factor used is reduction by 1/3

This is the case with the other point as (-6,-9) turned to (-2,-3)
