Find slope of blue line pls

 D)  3/4

===========================================================

Explanation:

Let's pick two points from this line. I'll pick on (0,-3) and (4,0). These are the y and x intercepts in that order.

Apply the slope formula to these points. Keep in mind that, when it comes to subtraction, the order matters.

The slope is 3/4

This says that to move from (0,-3) to (4,0), we'll go up 3 and to the right 4.

Slope = rise/run = 3/4

rise = 3, run = 4

The slope is positive because we move uphill when moving to the right.

call the larger triangle abc

then the smaller triangle cde is similar to abc (all angles are equal, aaa).  

ab is the side that is 36, and we wish to find de, the side corresponding to ab

area_cde = area_abc - area_cde --> area_abc / area_cde = 2

let x=length of de

ratio of areas = (ratio of sides)^2
