The answer is -9-18x
27−9x−9(x+4)=
27−9x−(9x+36)=
27−9x−9x−36=
Collect like terms.
(27−36)+(−9x−9x)= −9−18x

Given the triangle
PQR
with points
P(8,0)
Q(6,2)
R(-2,-4)
And the triangle
P'Q'R'
with points
P'(4,0)
Q'(3,1)
R'(-1,-2)
Part A. Scale factor
Using the vertex
P( 8, 0)
P'(4,0)
the dilatation factor is given by

The triangle has a dilatation factor of 1/2
Part B:
P''Q''R'' after using P'Q'R' reflected about the y axis
to make a reflection over the y axis
coordinates (x,y) turn into coordinates (-x,y)
as follows



Then triangle P''Q''R'' has coordinates
P''(-4,0)
Q''(-3,1)
R''(1,-2)
Part C:
PQR is congruent to P''Q''R''?
Congruent triangles are triangles that have the same size and shape. This means that the corresponding sides are equal and the corresponding angles are equal.
Then the triangles are not congruent
