By using any two of the points in the table, we will see that the slope is -2.
How to get the slope for the linear relationship?
A general linear relationship is:
y = a*x + b
Where a is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
Remember that if the line passes through (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂), the slope is:
[tex]a = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}[/tex]
Here we can use the first two points on the table:
(-4, 11) and (2, -1), so the slope is:
[tex]a = \frac{11 - (-1)}{-4 - 2} = 12/-6 = -2[/tex]
Then the slope of the line is -2.
