A coordinate plane shows four quadrants with both the x-axis and the y-axis ranging from negative 10 to positive 10 in increments of 2. Two points are plotted and joined by a line. The plotted points are as follows: left parenthesis negative 8 comma 0 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 0 comma 4 right parenthesis. A line connects the two plotted points and extends beyond the points in both directions.

To plot the points and draw the line on the coordinate plane, we start by drawing the x-axis and the y-axis ranging from -10 to 10 in increments of 2.

The x-axis will have the values -10, -8, -6, -4, -2, 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10.
The y-axis will have the values -10, -8, -6, -4, -2, 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10.

Next, we plot the points (-8, 0) and (0, 4) on the coordinate plane. The point (-8, 0) is to the left of the y-axis, on the x-axis, and the point (0, 4) is above the x-axis, on the y-axis.

Finally, we draw a line connecting the two plotted points (-8, 0) and (0, 4). This line extends beyond the plotted points in both directions.

The final coordinate plane should look like this:

| 10

| -8

|-10 -6 -2 2 6 10
