1. **Problem Statement:**
Find the coordinates of the images of vertices B, C, and D of triangle △BCD under a dilation centered at the origin with scale factor 3.
2. **Formula and Explanation:**
A dilation centered at the origin with scale factor $k$ transforms any point $(x,y)$ to $(kx, ky)$.
3. **Given Points:**
- $B = (1, -3)$
- $C = (2, -1)$
- $D = (3, 3)$
4. **Apply Dilation:**
- Image of $B$: $(3 \times 1, 3 \times -3) = (3, -9)$
- Image of $C$: $(3 \times 2, 3 \times -1) = (6, -3)$
- Image of $D$: $(3 \times 3, 3 \times 3) = (9, 9)$
5. **Explanation:**
Each coordinate is multiplied by the scale factor 3 because the dilation is centered at the origin, which means distances from the origin are scaled by 3.
**Final answer:**
- $B' = (3, -9)$
- $C' = (6, -3)$
- $D' = (9, 9)$
