Is the amount on my last year's form 8582 line 4 the passive activity loss carryover amount I should apply to this year's tax return?

I'm looking for my rental's loss carryover amount. My last year's tax return only contains 1 page of Form 8582, and not the worksheets described in other posts. Is the number on line 4 of 8582 the amount I can apply to this year's tax return as the loss carryover amount?
