Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope = [tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex] where the given points are [tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex] and [tex](x_2,y_2)[/tex]

Plug in the points (1,-12) and (6,3)

[tex]=\frac{3-(-12)}{6-1}\\=\frac{3+12}{5}\\=\frac{15}{5}\\= 3[/tex]

Therefore, the slope of the line is 3.

I hope this helps!
