The correct answer is: $5$
$\frac{h-3}{2}=\frac{k+4}{-3}=\frac{-2(3.2-3(-4)-5)}{2^2+(-3)^2}$


$\begin{aligned} & \frac{h-3}{2}=\frac{k+4}{-3}=\frac{-2 \times 13}{13} \therefore \frac{h-3}{2}=-2 \text { and } \frac{k+4}{-3}=-2 \\ & \mathrm{~h}=-1 \text { and } \mathrm{k}=2 \\ & \frac{l+1}{3}=\frac{m-2}{2}=\frac{-(3(-1)+2(2)+12)}{3^2+2^2} \\ & \frac{l+1}{3}=\frac{m-2}{2}=\frac{-13}{13}=-1\end{aligned}$

$\begin{aligned} & l=-4, m=0 \\ & \therefore l h+m k+1=-4(-1)+(0)(2)+1=5\end{aligned}$
