If this mumble-jumble is supposed to say:

Line 𝓁 has the equation y = (1/3)x
Find the equation of the image of 𝓁 after a dilation with a scale factor of 1/2 , centered at the origin.

The given line already has a dilation factor of 1/3 of the line y = x
You are doing another of 1/2, so what do you think?
