The figure below shows a line graph and two shaded triangles that are similar:
A line is shown on a coordinate grid. The x axis values are from negative 20 to positive 20 in increments of 4 for each grid line. The y axis values are from negative 5 to positive 5 in increments of 1 for each grid line. The line passes through the ordered pairs negative 16, 4, and 0, 0, and 16, negative 4. A shaded right triangle is formed so that its hypotenuse is from ordered pair 0, 0 labeled as O to negative 8, 2 labeled as A, one leg is from 0, 0 to negative 8, 0, and the second leg is from negative 8, 0 to negative 8, 2. Another shaded right triangle is formed with the hypotenuse from negative 8, 2 to negative 12, 3 labeled as B, one leg is from negative 8, 2 to negative 12, 2, and the second leg is from negative 12, 2 to negative 12, 3.
Which statement about the slope of the line is true?
The slope from point O to point A is fraction 1 over 4 times the slope of the line from point A to point B.
The slope from point O to point A is 4 times the slope of the line from point A to point B.
It is fraction negative 1 over 4 throughout the line.
It is −4 throughout the line
