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

The slope of the line represented by the given equation is: A. [tex]\frac{5}{2}[/tex]
Given the following equation:
- [tex]-5x+2y=10[/tex] ....equation 1
To find t:
The standard form of an equation of line is given by the following formula;
[tex]y = mx + b[/tex] .....equation 2.
Where:
- x and y are the points.
- m is the slope.
- b is the intercept.
From equation 1:
[tex]-5x+2y=10\\\\2y = 5x + 10\\\\y = \frac{5}{2}x + 10[/tex]
Comparing eqn 1 and eqn 2:
Slope = [tex]\frac{5}{2}[/tex]
