What is the slope of the line represented by the equation –5x+2y= 10–5x+2y= 10 ?
a)–5/2

b)–2/5

c)2/5

d)5/2

Think you accidentally typed -5x + 2y = 10 twice.

Anyhow, let's rearrange the equation to match the equation for a line which is y = mx + b:

-5x + 2y = 10

2y = 5x + 10

y = 5/2x + 5

Now, the slope in a line is the m value. So 5/2 is the slope.

y = 5/2x + 5
