Answer:

-4

Explanation:

Slope is rise over run:


m=(rise)/(run)=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)

The table is a linear function, so any two points from the table would have a consistent slope.

Pick two points and apply them to the formula:

(-4,-2) and (-2, -10)


m=(-10+2)/(-2+4)=(-8)/(2)=\boxed{-4}

The slope is -4. Yes, your answer should be correct.
