Answer: Slope = -3

=======================================================

Step-by-step explanation:

Pick any two rows you want. I'll pick the middle two rows where every value is positive. So I'll pick these two rows:

  • x = 0 and y = 4
  • x = 1 and y = 1

They lead to the points (0,4) and (1,1). Apply the slope formula for these rows.

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (1-4)/(1-0)

m = -3/1

m = -3

The slope is -3
