To find the slope of the linear function, we need to isolate y in the equation.

10x + 2y = 6

First, subtract 10x from both sides of the equation:

2y = -10x + 6

Next, divide both sides of the equation by 2:

y = -5x + 3

Now, we can see that the equation is in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b), where the coefficient of x (-5 in this case) is the slope. Therefore, the slope of the linear function is -5.
