Answer:

m=-4

Explanation:

in the formula y=mx, m is the slope. You can find it by looking at the graph, and finding two points that are defined on the grid. In this case, we can use (0,0) and (-1,4). Put it into the slope formula, (y2-y1)/(x2-x1). In this case, it would be (4-0)/(-1-0), which simplifies to 4/-1=-4. Therefore, m= -4
