Determine a series of transformations that would map polygon ABCDE onto polygon A’B’C’D’E

Reflected across x-axis followed by a dilation with a scale factor of 2 about the origin.

Step-by-step explanation:

It's clear from the graph,

Polygon ABCDE is reflected across x-axis then dilated so that it overlaps polygon A'B'C'D'E'

Let's choose a point A having coordinates (-2, -1)

By reflecting point A across x-axis,

Rule to be followed for the reflection,

(x, y) → (x, -y)

By this rule, coordinates of the image point A will be,

A(-2, -1) → A"(-2, 1)

Now point A"(-2, 1) has been dilated by a scale factor = k to form an image points A'(-4, 2).

Rule for the dilation of a point about the origin is,

A"(x, y) → A'(kx, ky)

A"(-2, 1) → A'(-2k, k)

Since, coordinates of point A' are (-4, -2),

Therefore, -2k = -4

k = 2

k = 2

Hence, polygon ABCDE was reflected across x-axis followed by a dilation with a scale factor of 2 about the origin to form polygon A'B'C'D'E'.
