Alike with slope = 1/2 passes through the points (2,5) and (x,3). what is the value of x? -1 1 -2 2

Y = mx + b

slope = m = 1/21, so we have

y = 1/2 x + b

The line passes through (2, 5), so we get

5 = 1/2 * 2 + b

5 = 1 + b

b = 4

The equation of the line is

y = 1/2 x + 4

Point (x, 3) has a y-coordinate of 3. We are looking for the x-coordinate.

y = 1/2 x + 4

3 = 1/2 x + 4

-1 = 1/2 x

x = -2

i = 2 / - 5

step-by-step explanation:

evaluation of ( 2 - 4 ) ( p + q ) when p = 2 and q = 5 i, by putting values of p and q,                                                                    

0 = ( 2 - 4 ) ( p + q )0 = ( 2 - 4 ) ( 2 + 5 i ),   by multiplying these0 = ( 4 + 10 i - 8 - 20 i )0 = 4 - 8 + 10 i - 20 i0 = - 4 -10 i   0 = 2 ( - 2 - 5 i )0 / 2 = - 2 - 5 i- 2 - 5 i = 0- 5 i = 2i = 2 / - 5
