The answer is C, from where the end lines go down to on the graph
        
             
        
        
        
<span>Simplifying
(5b + -9) + -3(8 + -2b) = 0
Reorder the terms:
(-9 + 5b) + -3(8 + -2b) = 0
Remove parenthesis around (-9 + 5b)
-9 + 5b + -3(8 + -2b) = 0
-9 + 5b + (8 * -3 + -2b * -3) = 0
-9 + 5b + (-24 + 6b) = 0
Reorder the terms:
-9 + -24 + 5b + 6b = 0
Combine like terms: -9 + -24 = -33
-33 + 5b + 6b = 0
Combine like terms: 5b + 6b = 11b
-33 + 11b = 0
Solving
-33 + 11b = 0
Solving for variable 'b'.
Move all terms containing b to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '33' to each side of the equation.
-33 + 33 + 11b = 0 + 33
Combine like terms: -33 + 33 = 0
0 + 11b = 0 + 33
11b = 0 + 33
Combine like terms: 0 + 33 = 33
11b = 33</span>

Answer: The answers are 
(i) The slope of segments DE and AC is not 0.
(ii) The coordinates of D and E were found using the Midpoint Formula.
 
Step-by-step explanation:  We can easily see in the proof  that the co-ordinates of D and E were found using the mid-point formula, not distance between two points formula. So, this is the first flaw in the Gina's proof.
Also, we see that the slope of line DE and AC, both are same, not equal to 0 but is equal to

which is 0 only if 
So, this is the second mistake.
Thus, the statements that corrects the flaw in Gina's proof are
(i) The slope of segments DE and AC is not 0.
(ii) The coordinates of D and E were found using the Midpoint Formula.
