$\bf \begin{array}{ccccccccc}
&&x_1&&y_1&&x_2&&y_2\\
&&(~ -2 &,& -2~) 
&&(~ 0 &,& 5~)
\end{array}
\\\\\\
% slope = m
slope = m\implies 
\cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{ y_2- y_1}}{\stackrel{run}{ x_2- x_1}}\implies \cfrac{5-(-2)}{0-(-2)}\implies \cfrac{5+2}{0+2}\implies \cfrac{7}{2}
\\\\\\
\stackrel{\textit{point-slope form}}{y- y_1= m(x- x_1)}\implies y-(-2)=\cfrac{7}{2}[x-(-2)]
\\\\\\
y+2=\cfrac{7}{2}(x+2)\implies y+2=\cfrac{7}{2}x+7\implies y=\cfrac{7}{2}x+5$

Step-by-step explanation:

A(3,3) H(-4,-4)

The coordinates of the midpoint of the diagonal AH F(x,y):

$\displaystyle\\F(x,y)=(\frac{3+(-4)}{2} ,\frac{3+(-4)}{2} )\\\\F(x,y)=(\frac{3-4}{2} ,\frac{3-4}{2})\\\\F(x,y)=(\frac{-1}{2},\frac{-1}{2})\\\\F (x,y) =(-0.5,-0.5)$

Alyaa gets 15 signatures each day for 12 day. One the thirteenth day Alyaa get 55 signatures. Alyaa is trying to get 500 signatu

amid [387]

Okay dso if she got 15 points for 12 days then you would multiply them (or just add 15+15+15+15 and so on but multiplying is easier) then you are going to add 55 because of the thirteenth day.
15(12)=180
180+55=235 is how many you have.
now you are going to subtract 500 from that number to see how many more you need. :)
