To graph the equation 2 x plus 5 y is equal to 10 , Zeplyn draws a line through the points 5 comma 0 and 0 comma 2 What is the slope of the line represented by 2 x plus 5 y is equal to 10 ?

The line passes through (5, 0) and (0, 2). Its slope is the change in y divided by the change in x: (2 − 0) / (0 − 5) = 2 / (−5) = −2/5. Therefore, the slope is negative 2 fifths, choice A.
