Step-by-step explanation:

formally, there is only one alternative : if not negative, it would be a positive number.

and that would mean

2× -4/5 = x (= a positive number)

2× -4 = 5x (= still a positive number)

-4 = 5x/2 (= still a positive number)

and -4 is definitely not a positive number.

so, it is proven, 2× -4/5 cannot be a positive number, and therefore has to be a negative number.
