Question

Find the x and y centroid of the shape.

The image depicts a coordinate plane with two lines and a triangle formed by these lines and the axes.

1. **Axes**: 
   - The vertical axis is labeled as the y-axis.
   - The horizontal axis is labeled as the x-axis.

2. **Lines**: 
   - The first line is labeled \(y = 3x\). This line is a straight line passing through the origin with a positive slope of 3.
   - The second line is labeled \(y = -x\). This line also passes through the origin but with a negative slope of -1.

3. **Triangle**: 
   - The triangle is positioned in the first quadrant of the graph.
   - The vertex at the origin (0,0) is where the two lines intersect.
   - The top point of the triangle on the y-axis is at (0, 9').
   - The bottom right point of the triangle touches the x-axis at (3', 0).
   - The height of the triangle, indicated as 9', is measured on the y-axis.
   - The base of the triangle, indicated as 3', is measured on the x-axis.

This setup visually demonstrates the intersection and arrangement of lines with different slopes and helps in understanding the geometric properties and dimensions of the triangle.
