How can I center an image and also rescale it?

Question

I have a document I am writing for my math class. I have this code here

\begin{center}
    \begin{figure}[!htb]
        \includegraphics[width=0.5\linewidth]{14-1Ex2.png}
    \end{figure}
\end{center}

that is supposed to recenter and rescale the image. However, I end up with something like this:

How can I get it to both center and rescale?

How's this?

\begin{figure}[!htb]
    \centering
    \includegraphics[scale=0.5]{14-1Ex2.png} % or put scale whatever you want
\end{figure}

That worked great! Thanks so much! What's the difference between this way and the way I was using? – ryanyz10 May 20 '16 at 01:16
