3x + 2 = 5x - 8
Flip
5x - 8 = 3x + 2
Subtract both sides by 3x
2x - 8 = 2
Add both sides by 8
2x = 10
Divide both sides by 2
x = 5
That's your answer.
Have an awesome day! :)

Answer: 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, we are informed that Pranav ate pizza for dinner on Monday night and had 2/3 of the pizza left over. We are further told that on Tuesday night, he ate 1/2 of what was left.
The amount of pizza that Pranav ate on Tuesday will be:
= 1/2 × 2/3
= 1/3
She ate 1/3 on Tuesday
Step-by-step explanation:
the slope of a line function is always the factor of x.
in our case : -1/4
it is the ratio y/x indicating how many units y changes, when x changes a certain amount of units.
in our case y decreases by 1 for every x increase by 4.
now, the perpendicular slope simply changes x and y upside-down and flips the sign.
in our case it is : 4/1 = 4
so, the line function in point slope form is then (using the new slope and the point coordinates)
y - 3 = 4(x - 1)
