Answer:
3, because [tex]y=-\frac{1}{2}x+9[/tex].
Step-by-step explanation:
Looking at this graph, we can start to determine the equation for it.
The y-intercept of this graph is 9, therefore there will be a constant of 9.
We can find the slope by looking at rise over run. It vertically travels -1 for every 2 horizontally. So the slope is [tex]-\frac{1}{2}[/tex].
Making this into an equation gets us [tex]y=-\frac{1}{2}x+9[/tex].
Now we can substitute 12 into this equation as x.
[tex]y=-\frac{1}{2}(12)+9\\ y=-6+9\\y=3[/tex]
Hope this helped!
