Answer: The correct option is

(B) $\dfrac{1}{6}.$

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to find the slope of the straight line shown in the graph.

From the graph, we see that the line passes through the points (-6, 3) and (12, 6).

The SLOPE of a line passing through the points (a, b) and (c, d) is given by

$m=\dfrac{d-b}{c-a}.$

Therefore, the slope of the given line is

$m=\dfrac{6-3}{12-(-6)}=\dfrac{3}{12+6}=\dfrac{3}{18}=\dfrac{1}{6}.$

Thus, the slope of the given line is $\dfrac{1}{6}.$

Option (B) is CORRECT.

You have to know that the graph of the arctangent function is a flat S-shaped curve that goes through (0, 0) and has asymptotes at ±π/2. The factor of 2 that multiplies it here expands it vertically so the asymptotes are at ±π. The +3 added to the x causes it to be shifted to the left by 3 units.
