Delilah is correct; it is

Here, we want to check who was right

Mathematically, we can dilate a figure by reduction or enlargement by the use of a specific scale factor

When the scale factor is less than 1, it is a reduction

However, if the scale factor is greater than 1, it is an enlargement

The original point is (x,y)

From the image coordinates given, we see that the scale factor is 6/5 which is greater than 1

Thus, the dilation is an enlargement and Delilah was right
