Answer:
x - 3/7
Step-by-step explanation:
Since center of dilation is the origin, this is easy. Just divide all of the x and y coordinate values by 3. Place the new point on the graph, and draw the triangle.
R' = R(3,6)/3 = (3/3,6/3)=(1,2). So R'(1,2)
S' = S(-3,6)/3 = (-3/3,6/3)=(-1,2). So S'(-1,2)
T' = T(-6,-6)/3 = (-6/3,-6/3)=(-2,-2). So T'(-2,-2)
So you now know the location of the 3 new points. R' at (1,2), S' at (-1,2) and T' at (-2,-2). Simply draw those 3 points on your graph and connect the lines to make a new triangle.

Answer: 19</h3>
==============================================================
Explanation:
T is the midpoint of PQ, which means T splits PQ into two equal parts. Those parts being PT and TQ.
Set them equal to each other and solve for x.
PT = TQ
3x+7 = 7x-9
3x-7x = -9-7
-4x = -16
x = -16/(-4)
x = 4
So,
PT = 3x+7 = 3*4+7 = 19
TQ = 7x-9 = 7*4-9 = 19
Both PT and TQ are 19 units long to help confirm the answer.
