Tables and Figures side-by-side in Knitr or RMarkdown Beamer

I am trying to create a Beamer Presentation slide in RMarkdown / Knitr . In the slide I would like to have a table and a figure placed Side-by-side , and then some more text underneath. I can only get as far as my attempt as shown in the code. I would like to have the density plot placed, next to the Hmisc Table.

I am not using Kable or xtable since I get more control over the tables with Hmisc.

Also, How can I adjust the text characteristics (font-size, type, color) in the individual slides?

---
title: "BeamerTest1"
subtitle: Beamer Subtitle
author: "Author"

output:
  beamer_presentation:
    theme: CambridgeUS
    colortheme: "beaver"
    fonttheme: "structurebold"

## Slide with Table, Figure and Text

My topic for this slide 

\scalebox{0.35}{
```{r hmisc-table, echo=FALSE, message=FALSE, results='asis'}
library(Hmisc)
latex(head(mtcars), file='', table.env=FALSE, center='none')
```
}


```{r, echo=FALSE, fig.show='hold', fig.height=1, fig.width=2.5}
library(ggplot2)
mt <- ggplot(mtcars, aes(mpg)) + geom_density(alpha=.2, fill="#FF6666") +
  theme(axis.title.x = element_text(size=10),axis.text.x  = element_text(size=8),
        axis.title.y = element_text(size=10),axis.text.y  = element_text(size=8))
mt
```

- Here is some Bullet Text
- And some more
    - Subtext
    - More Subtext

Thanks

As I've already answered the similar question like this, I repeat my answer in which I use ::: notation, adding the codes to create the output you may want.

You can use fenced_divs notation or ::: to create columns or `Two Content layout'. See also this page to know more about the notation.

## Slide With Image Left

::: columns

:::: column
left
::::

:::: column
right

```{r your-chunk-name, echo=FALSE, fig.cap="your-caption-name"}
knitr::include_graphics("your/figure/path/to/the-image.pdf")

#The figure will appear on the right side of the slide...
```
::::

:::

Since pandoc 2+, which supports the notation, was implemented in RStudio v1.2+, you may need to install RStudio v1.2+ first. The installation is easy enough (at least in my case); just download and install RStudio v1.2+. In the way of installation, the former version of RStudio on your computer will be replaced with the new one without uninstalling it manually.

The following figure is an example which you have if you implement the notation.

The MWE code which produced the slide above is here, too:

title: "BeamerTest1"
subtitle: Beamer Subtitle
author: "Author"

output:
  beamer_presentation:
  theme: CambridgeUS
  colortheme: "beaver"
  fonttheme: "structurebold"
