Answer:

slope = -
(2)/(5)

Explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = -
(2)/(5) x +
(4)/(5) ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = -
(2)/(5)

Parallel lines have equal slopes, thus

m = -
(2)/(5) ← is slope of parallel line
