Answer: SF = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Looking at the figure and its image, three things are immediately obvious.....

The image is bigger

The image is inverted.

The figure and the image have a common point.

The common point is the center of dilation.  (-4, -4)

The fact that it lies BETWEEN the image and the figure means that the SF is a negative number.

This accounts for the fact that the image is inverted.

To find the Scale Factor divide  

[tex]\frac{a side in the image}{the same side in the figure}[/tex]

Looking at the horizontal lines we see..

[tex]\frac{a side in the image}{the same side in the figure}[/tex] = -[tex]\frac{6}{2}[/tex] = -3
