Answer:

  A)  1

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find G such that ...

  (G-F)/(D-G) = 8/5

  5(G-F) = 8(D-G)

  5G -5F = 8D-8G . . . . eliminate parentheses

  13G = 8D +5F . . . . . . add 5F +8G to both sides

  G = (8D +5F)/13 . . . . divide by the coefficient of G

  G = (8(-4) +5(9))/13 = (-32 +45)/13 = 13/13

  G = 1 . . . . . . matches choice A
