Answer:

The coordinates of the Pizza Hut is (6,-11)

Step-by-step explanation:

Gym is equidistant and collinear from Target and Pizza Hut.

T (-17, 17) :  [tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex]

G (-5.5, 3) : (x,y)

P : [tex](x_2,y_2)[/tex]

Mid point formula ; (x,y) is on mid point on line formed by joining points [tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex]and [tex](x_2,y_2)[/tex]

m = 1, n = 1

[tex]x=\frac{x_1+x_2}{2}[/tex]

[tex]-5.5=\frac{-17+x_2}{2}[/tex]

[tex]-11=-17+x_2[/tex]

[tex]x_2=17-11 = 6[/tex]

[tex]y=\frac{y_1+y_2}{2}[/tex]

[tex]3=\frac{17+y_2}{2}[/tex]

[tex]6=17+y_2[/tex]

[tex]y_2=-17+6 = -11[/tex]

The coordinates of the Pizza Hut is (6,-11)
