Answer:

Option A) They are parallel because their slopes are equal.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Line AB:

(-4, -2), (4,4)

Line CD:

(0,-3), (4,0)

Formula to calculate slope =

(x_1, y_1), (x_2, y_2)\\\\\\text{Slope} = m = \dfrac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

Slope of AB =

(-4, -2), (4,4)\\\\m_{AB} = \dfrac{4-(-2)}{4-(-4)} = \dfrac{6}{8} = \dfrac{3}{4}

Slope of CD =

(0,-3), (4,0)\\\\m_{CD} = \dfrac{0-(-3)}{4-0} = \dfrac{3}{4}

Thus,

m_{AB} = m_{CD}

Thus, the two lines are parallel.

Option A) They are parallel because their slopes are equal.
