To find the slope from the table, we can use the formula for slope, which is:

slope = (change in y) / (change in x)

Let's calculate the changes in y and x for consecutive data points in the table:

For the first two points (-3, 18) and (-1, 4):
change in y = 4 - 18 = -14
change in x = -1 - (-3) = -1 + 3 = 2

For the next two points (4, -31) and (5, -38):
change in y = ...
