Explanation:

Step1: Recall dilation formula

For a dilation with center \((h,k)\) and scale - factor \(k\), the transformation of a point \((x,y)\) to \((x',y')\) is given by \(x'=h + k(x - h)\) and \(y'=k + k(y - k)\). We can also use the property that if we know one pre - image point \((x_1,y_1)\) and its image point \((x_2,y_2)\) after dilation with center \((h,k)\), then \(x_2 - h=k(x_1 - h)\) and \(y_2 - k=k(y_1 - k)\). Let's assume a pre - image point and its image point and test the center and scale - factor values.
Let's take a simple approach. If we consider the distance between corresponding points of the pre - image and the image and relate it to the scale factor. First, we need to find a pair of corresponding points.
Let's assume the center of dilation is \((h,k)\). If we take a point \((x_1,y_1)\) on the pre - image and its image \((x_2,y_2)\), the distance from the center of dilation to the pre - image point \(d_1=\sqrt{(x_1 - h)^2+(y_1 - k)^2}\) and the distance from the center of dilation to the image point \(d_2=\sqrt{(x_2 - h)^2+(y_2 - k)^2}\), and \(d_2 = kd_1\).
Let's assume the center of dilation is \((- 2,6)\). Take a point on the pre - image, say \((0,0)\) (for simplicity, if it is a valid point on the pre - image shape). Let the image of \((0,0)\) be \((x,y)\).
The distance from \((-2,6)\) to \((0,0)\) is \(d_1=\sqrt{(0 + 2)^2+(0 - 6)^2}=\sqrt{4 + 36}=\sqrt{40}=2\sqrt{10}\).
Let's test the scale factors.
If \(k=\frac{3}{2}\), the distance from \((-2,6)\) to the image point \((x,y)\) should be \(d_2=\frac{3}{2}\times2\sqrt{10}=3\sqrt{10}\).
Let's use another method. If the center of dilation is \((h,k)\) and a point \((x,y)\) is dilated to \((x',y')\), then \(x'=h + k(x - h)\) and \(y'=k + k(y - k)\).
Let's assume the center of dilation is \((-2,6)\). Take a point on the pre - image, say \((1,3)\) and its corresponding point on the image.
Let's use the property of dilation. If we consider two corresponding points \(P(x_1,y_1)\) and \(P'(x_2,y_2)\) and center of dilation \(C(h,k)\), then \(\frac{\vert P'C\vert}{\vert PC\vert}=k\).
Let's assume the center of dilation is \((-2,6)\). Take a point on the pre - image, say \((1,3)\). The distance between \((1,3)\) and \((-2,6)\) is \(d=\sqrt{(1 + 2)^2+(3 - 6)^2}=\sqrt{9 + 9}=\sqrt{18}=3\sqrt{2}\).
Let's find the distance between the image of \((1,3)\) (say \((x,y)\)) and \((-2,6)\).
If the scale factor \(k = \frac{3}{2}\), the new distance should be \(d'=\frac{3}{2}\times3\sqrt{2}=\frac{9\sqrt{2}}{2}\).
Let's assume the center of dilation is \((1,3)\). Take a point on the pre - image, say \((0,0)\). The distance between \((0,0)\) and \((1,3)\) is \(d_1=\sqrt{(0 - 1)^2+(0 - 3)^2}=\sqrt{1 + 9}=\sqrt{10}\).
Let's check the scale factors. If \(k=\frac{3}{2}\), the distance from \((1,3)\) to the image of \((0,0)\) should be \(d_2=\frac{3}{2}\sqrt{10}\).
Let's use the coordinate - based dilation formula. If the center of dilation is \((1,3)\) and a point \((x,y)\) is dilated, the image \((x',y')\) is given by \(x'=1 + k(x - 1)\) and \(y'=3 + k(y - 3)\).
Let's take two corresponding points. Suppose a pre - image point \((x_1,y_1)\) and its image \((x_2,y_2)\).
If the center of dilation is \((1,3)\), and we consider a pre - image point \((0,0)\):
\(x_2=1 + k(0 - 1)=1 - k\) and \(y_2=3 + k(0 - 3)=3-3k\).
Let's assume a pre - image point \((0,0)\) and its image point \((- \frac{1}{2},-\frac{3}{2})\) (by observing the graph and using the dilation formula).
If the center of dilation is \((1,3)\), then \(x_2 - 1=k(x_1 - 1)\) and \(y_2 - 3=k(y_1 - 3)\). Substituting \(x_1 = 0,y_1 = 0,x_2=-\frac{1}{2},y_2 =-\frac{3}{2}\)
\(-\frac{1}{2}-1=k(0 - 1)\) and \(-\frac{3}{2}-3=k(0 - 3)\)
\(-\frac{3}{2}=-k\) and \(-\frac{9}{2}=-3k\), so \(k=\frac{3}{2}\)
The center of dilation \((1,3)\) and scale factor \(k = \frac{3}{2}\) satisfies the dilation of the given shapes.

Answer:

Center \((1,3)\) and scale factor \(\frac{3}{2}\)
