It is not possible to determine the slope of the line without the graph.

In that case, we can find the slope of the line by using the coordinates of the two dots. The slope is given by:
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
Let's assume the dot on the four has coordinates (x1, y1) = (0, 4) and the dot on the -8 has coordinates (x2, y2) = (2, -8).
m = (-8 - 4) / (2 - 0)
m = -12 / 2
m = -6
Therefore, the slope of the line is -6.
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
Let's assume the dot on the four has coordinates (x1, y1) = (0, 4) and the dot on the -8 has coordinates (x2, y2) = (2, -8).
m = (-8 - 4) / (2 - 0)
m = -12 / 2
m = -6
Therefore, the slope of the line is -6.

Apologies for the confusion. Without a specific graph, it is difficult to determine the exact slope. However, based on the given answer choices, we can try to determine which one could be the most likely slope.
The slope of a line is determined by the change in the value of y divided by the change in the value of x. In this case, with the dot at (4,0) and the dot at (-8,0), the value of y remains constant at 0. Therefore, the change in y is 0, and the slope would be 0 divided by the change in x.
Since the x-coordinate of the first dot is 4 and the x-coordinate of the second dot is -8, the change in x would be -8 - 4 = -12.
So, the slope would be 0 / -12 = 0. Therefore, the answer is not among the given options, as none of them match a slope of 0.
