Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer: N = 143
Discussion:
This one took some trial and error! At first I listed all 2 digit primes, looked at the list, but didn't know how to proceed. So, I took the smallest 2 digit primes numbers: 11 and 13 and wondered if their product, 13*11 = 143, could be represented as the sum of 3 consecutive primes. I went back to my list of primes, added groups of three consecutive numbers that seemed to be in the right range to give the desired sum, and stumbled on 43, 47, and 53!
43 + 47 + 53 = 143 !
Therefore N = 143. It's the sum of 43, 47, and 53 as well as the product of 11 and 13.
Thank you,

The coordinates for D are (-4, -7)
First we must locate point B as it is vital to finding the midpoint of BD. To do this, we take the average of the endpoints AC since B is its midpoint.
x values = -9 + 1 = -8
Then divide by 2 for the average -8/2 = -4
y values = -4 + 6 = 2
Then divide by 2 for the average 2/2 = 1
Therefore B must be (-4, 1)
Now we know the values of E must be the average of B and D. So we can write equations for each coordinate since we know they are averages.
x - values = (Bx + Dx)/2 = Ex
(-4 + Dx)/2 = -4 ---> multiply both sides by 2
-4 + Dx = -8 ---> add -4 to both sides
Dx = -4
y - values = (By + Dy)/2 = Ey
(1 + Dy)/2 = -3 ---> multiply both sides by 2
1 + Dy = -6 ---> subtract 1 from both side
Dy = -7
So the coordinates for D must be (-4, -7)
