A line with slope =1/2 passes through the points (2,5) and (x,3). What is the value of x

OpenStudy (mathmale):

I'd suggest you actually find the equation of this line; use the point-slope form and the given info: slope = 1/2 and one point on line is (2,5). Simplify this equation. Next, substitute the value 3 for y in your equation, and solve the resulting equation for x. That'll be the value you wanted.
