A triangle is located on a three-dimensional coordinate plane. Matrix A shows the location of each vertex, where the first column represents the x coordinate, the second column represents the y coordinate, and the third column represents the z coordinate.The triangle is dilated by a scale factor of 2, then translated by the factors in matrix B, resulting in an image triangle as represented by the equation below.In which directions are the vertices translated, as indicated by matrix B?

Question illustration
A
3 units in the x direction, -2 units in the y direction, 1 unit in the z direction
B
3 units in the x direction, 3 units in the y direction, 3 unit in the z direction
C
4 units in the x direction, 0 units in the y direction, 2 unit in the z direction
D
4 units in the x direction, 6 units in the y direction, 5 unit in the z direction
