The slope of a line parallel to another line will have the same slope as the original line. To find the slope of the line 25x - 5y = -10, we need to rearrange the equation into the slope-intercept form y = mx + b, where m is the slope.

First, we'll isolate y:

25x - 5y = -10

5y = 25x + 10

y = (25/5)x + 2

So the slope of the line 25x - 5y = -10 is m = 25/5 = 5.

Therefore, a line parallel to 25x - 5y = -10 will have a slope of m = 5.
