To find the slope of a linear relationship, we use the formula for slope, which is:

$\text{slope} = \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

You can choose any two points from the table to calculate the slope. Let's use the points (6, -2) and (2, 2).

$\text{slope} = \frac{2 - (-2)}{2 - 6} = \frac{2 + 2}{2 - 6} = \frac{4}{-4} = -1$

So, the slope of the relationship is -1.
