The slope-point formula:

We have (3, -5) and (-8, 4).
Substitute:

Answer:
SAS Reflective property
Step-by-step explanation:
16. It's basically the problem you started with, but just reversed.
Lets solve for a
ax+b=x+c
step 1:add -b to both sides
ax+b-b=c+x+-b
step 2:divide both sides
ax=-b+c+x
ax/x=-b+c+x/x
a=-b+c+x/x
answer:
a=-b+c+x/x
