The formula for the slope of a line between two points is m=y2-y1/x2-x1. Substitute the given coordinates into this equation and solve:
m=(48-12)/(32-34)=36/-2= -18
The slope is -18

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
j(x) = x + 5
j(12) is x = 12
<u>Step 2: Evaluate</u>
- Substitute in <em>x</em>: j(12) = 12 + 5
- Add: j(12) = 17
