Answer:

\Large\boxed{\mathsf{\frac{3}{2} }}}

Step-by-step explanation:

\Large\boxed{\mathsf{SUBJECT: MATH }}

GIVEN:

(0,8) and (-8, -4) (by using with slope formula.)

TO FIND:

\Large\boxed{\mathsf{SLOPE \quad FORMULA}}

\displaystyle \mathsf{\frac{Y_2-Y_1}{X_2-X_1} }

SOLUTIONS:

\displaystyle \mathsf{Y_2=(-4)}\\\\\displaystyle \mathsf{Y_1=8}\\\\\displaystyle \mathsf{X_2=(-8)}\\\\\displaystyle \mathsf{X_1=0}\\

Solve. (Simplify/ to find the right answer.)

\displaystyle \mathsf{\frac{(-4)-8}{(-8)-0}=\frac{-12}{-8}=\frac{-12\div4}{-8\div4}=\frac{-3}{-2}=\boxed{\mathsf{\frac{3}{2} }}}}    }}}

Therefore, the slope is 3/2, which is our answer.
