Answer:

-2

Explanation:

We start out our equation by plugging in the values for x and y which becomes:

3(-4) + 4 over -4(4) - 3(-4)

So basically we just simplify both the numerator and denominator which equals:

-12 + 4 over -16 + 12

Simplify it even more:

-8 over -4 or -8/-4

Which gives us the answer:

-2
