The new slope is 3, but the y-intercept doesn't change.
Answer:
DEC+DEF=180
DEC=180-116
DEC=64°
in triangle DCE
angle D+angle C+angle E=180
7y+6+4y+64=180
11y+70=180
11y=180-70
11y=110
y=110/11
y=10°
angle C=4y
=4(10)
=40°
Since C is 2mi east of A and 2mi south of B, the shortest distance from A to B would be a straight line which is equal to the hypotenuse of a right triangle with a base of 2mi and a height of 2mi..
d^2=x^2+y^2
d^2=2^2+2^2
d^2=4+4
d^2=2*4
d=√(2*4)
d=2√2 mi (exact)
d≈2.83 mi (to nearest hundredth of a mile)
