Answer:

The slope of the line is 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Great question, it is always good to ask away and get rid of any doubts that you may be having.

I have created an illustration which is attached below in order to help you understand the situation. As we are told the passenger rode the subway from point (0 , 0) to point (-2, 0). Then he rode the subway from point (-2, 0) to the final destination of point (-2 , -10). In order to find the value of the slope we need to use the slope formula which is

$Slope = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}- x_{1} }$
