Answer:   scale factor = 2.5 and b` is now (0,10) and c` is (-15, 25)   Step-by-step explanation:   You first want to divide -15 and -6, the x values of a and a`. this will give you the scale factor. then multiply every other number by the scale factor to get the points for b` and c`.  (not sure if this is right but this is how i learned)
