Question

QUICK!!! WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!!!!
The table represents a linear function.

A two column table with six rows. The first row, x, has the entries negative 4, negative 2, negative 1, 1, 2. The second column, y, has the entries, negative 2, negative 10, negative 14, negative 22, negative 26.
What is the slope of the function?

–8
–4
2
5

Answer 1

Answer:

-4

Step-by-step explanation:

You can tell because every time the slope decreases by 5.

Answer 2

Answer:

-4

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the first two sets of points (-4,-2) and (-2,-10)

Then use the formula  Y2 - Y1 / X2 - X1  to find the slope

-10 + 2 / -2 + 4 = -8/2 which can be reduced to -4
