What is the slope of a line parallel to the line with equation 2x-5y=10

thnx!

You can rearrange it into the form y = mx + c, where m is the slope. The slope of a parallel line will be equal to this.

You could remember that for
ax + by + d = 0

m = -a/b.

Edit: -a/b .

2x-5y=10

y=mx + c is the standard form

2x-10 = 5y

(2/5) x - 2 = y

y = (2/5)x - 2

the slope is m which is.....
