Answer:

C.
(4)/(5)

Explanation:

In order to find the slope knowing two points, use the slope formula
(y_2 - y_1)/(x_2-x_1).
x_1 and
y_1 represent the x and y values of one point the line intersects, and
x_2 and
y_2 represent the x and y values of another point the line intersects.

Knowing this, use the points (-4, -4) and (6, 4) for the formula. Substitute -4 for
x_1, -4 for
y_1, 6 for
x_2, and 4 for
y_2. Then, simplify:


((4) - (-4))/((6) - (-4)) \\= (4+4)/(6+4) \\= (8)/(10) \\= (4)/(5)

Thus,
(4)/(5) is the slope of the line.
