The graph below shows the cumulative volume of water lost from a plant over a 6-hour period between 09:00 and 15:00.

A graph showing cumulative volume of water lost in cubic centimeters from 09:00 to 15:00. The horizontal axis is 'Time of day' from 09:00 to 15:00. The vertical axis is 'Volume of water lost in cm³' ranging from 100 to 160. A curve showing the results has a tangent line drawn at 12:00. The tangent line begins at (09:00, 115) and ends at (15:00, 142).

Determine the rate of water loss at 12:00 using the tangent line shown.

Give your answer:
