Answer:  ER(P) = Rf + β(Rm-Rf)

                 6      = 5 + β(17-5)

                 6      = 5 + β(12 )

            6 - 5     = 12β

                1        = 12β

                 β       =  1/12

                 β       = 0.083

Explanation: In determining the Beta of the stock, we need to apply capital asset pricing formula and then make Beta the subject of the  formula. Other variables will be substituted with the exception of Beta, which becomes the subject of the formula.
