Question

A line with slope =passes through the points (2, 5) and (x, 3). What is the value of x? (1 point) Responses –1 –1 1 1 –2 –2 2
GPT 3.5
To find the value of x, we can use the formula for finding the slope of a line:

slope = (change in y)/(change in x)

Given that the line passes through the points (2, 5) and (x, 3), we can set up the equation:

slope = (3 - 5)/(x - 2)

Since the problem tells us that the slope is 1, we can substitute that into the equation:

1 = (3 - 5)/(x - 2)

Now we can solve for x:

(x - 2) = 2
x = 4

So the value of x is 4.
there is no 4

Apologies for the error. Let's try solving it again:

Given that the slope of the line is 1, we can use the slope-intercept form of a linear equation:

y = mx + b

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Since the line passes through the point (2, 5), we can substitute the values of x and y into the equation:

5 = 2(1) + b
5 = 2 + b
b = 5 - 2
b = 3

Now, the equation of the line is:

y = x + 3

To find the value of x when y = 3, we can substitute these values into the equation:

3 = x + 3
x = 3 - 3
x = 0

Therefore, the value of x is 0.
these are the answers -1 1 -2 2

Apologies for the previous incorrect response. Let's solve the problem correctly:

Given that the line passes through the points (2, 5) and (x, 3), we can use the formula for finding the slope of a line:

slope = (change in y)/(change in x)

slope = (3 - 5)/(x - 2)

Since the problem tells us that the slope is 1, we can set up the equation:

1 = (3 - 5)/(x - 2)

To simplify the equation, we can calculate the change in y:

1 = -2/(x - 2)

Now, we can solve for x by cross-multiplying:

(x - 2) = -2

x = -2 + 2

x = 0

Therefore, the value of x is 0.
