Answer:

m=6

Explanation:

the slope (m) of a line from two points is given as (y2-y1)/(x2-x1).

the points given are (6,0) and (4,-12)

we can label the points:

x1=6

y1=0

x2=4

y2=-12

now substitute into the equation

m=(-12-0)/(4-6)

subtract

m=-12/-2

divide

m=6

the slope is 6

hope this helps! :)
