Coordinate Planes

[hbtcutie92]

The coordinates of the endpoints of AB are A(2,6) and B( 4, 2). Is the image A"B" the same as if it was reflected in the x axis then dilated by 1,2 as the image is if it dilated by 1.2, then reflected in the x axis? Justify your answer. (A grid is optional)

I know dilation means a bigger picture of the original. And a reflection is like the opposite, like in a mirror. Can someone help me figure out how to if not help answer the question, shelp me start?

"endpoints of AB" What is "AB"? We don't necessarily need that information, but it might help or become useful.

"dilated by 1,2" Don't we need a center for a dilation? Maybe I'm wrong.

Is the image A"B" the same as if it was reflected in the x axis then dilated by 1/2 as the image is if it dilated by 1/2, then reflected in the x axis? Justify your answer.
