Answer:

1

Explanation:

To find the slope, we must use the saying Rise over run. This means you calculate the difference of one y coordinate from another, and divide it by the difference of one x coordinate and another. In this problem, the coordinates are (4,0) and (0,-4).

Now, we write out our equation:

0-(-4) / 4-0 = 0 + 4 / 4 = 4/4 =1

The slope is one!
