Let the first number be x.

Third number = x - 6

Second number = 3(x - 6) = 3x - 18

Sum of the numbers = 96

x + 3x - 18 + x - 6 = 96

5x -24 = 96

5x = 120

x = 24

Thus,

The first number is 24. The second number is 54. The third number is 18.

The first point given iis (a, b)=(-6,2).

The second point given is (c,d)=(0, -6).

The expression for the slope is,

m=(d-b)/(c-a)

Substitute the given points in the above expression.

m=(-6-2)/(0-(-6))

=(-8)/(6)

=-4/3

Thus, the slope of the line is -4/3, so (C) option is correct.
