Answer:

The scale factor is 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]\left| OA\right| =5[/tex]

[tex]\left| OA'\right| =7.5[/tex]

Required

Determine the scale factor

The scale factor (k) is calculated using:

[tex]k = \frac{\left| OA'\right|}{\left| OA\right|}[/tex]

Substitute values for OA and OA'

[tex]k = \frac{7.5}{5}[/tex]

[tex]k = 1.5[/tex]

The scale factor is 1.5
