Answer:
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the value of x make sure to get it on one side
First subtract 3x from each side. This makes the equation now
3x + 2 = -8 + 25
Now see what 25 subtract by 8 is (17)
3x + 2 = 17
Next subtract 2 from both sides
3x = 15
Lastly, divide 15 by 3, making x equal 5
-3/4 slope
y = 3/4 x +2 has a slope of 3/4
Perpendicular lines intersect.
So the slope of the perpendicular line must be opposite.
