d. -2

One may ask how I got this answer. Well, by simply isolating y.
The slope-intercept form also isolates y; it is y= mx + b, m being slope.
Thus, 5y =-10x +4. Then divide 5 to all sides. y= -2x + 4/5
In the place of m is -2.
Hurray!

What is the slope of the line represented by the equation 10x +5y = 4? a. 2 b. 1/2 c. -1/2 d. -2
