OD. 9
The location of the point on the number line that is of the way from A = -4 to B = 17 would be 9.
We can calculate it as follows:
Total distance between -4 and 17 is 17 - (-4) = 21
We want the point that is of the way from -4 to 17. Since 4/5 = 0.8, we multiply 21 by 0.8 which gives 16.8.
Rounding 16.8 to the nearest integer gives us 9.
Therefore, the answer is OD: 9
