Answer:

(1/6)

Explanation:

The equation for the line on the attached graph is y = (1/6)x - 12

See the attached graph.

Select any two points. We'll find the Rise/Run, or slope between them, going from left to right.

Let's pick:

(-36,-18) and (36,-6)

Rise = (-6 - (-18)) = 12

Run = (36 - (-36)) = 72

Slope = Rise/Run = 12/72 or 1/6

The y-intercept is (0,-12)

y = (1/6)x - 12
