Dilation=multiplication
Explanation:
What is a dilation?
A
If
If
You didn't specify here, so I'm just going to assume that the dilation is about the origin. ALWAYS be sure to specify where the dilation is occurring.

So,
All I did was multiply the x coordinate of the original triangle by 2 to get the new coordinate of the image.
We do the same for B and C:
