To find the slope of the proportional relationship shown in the table, we can use the formula for slope, which is given by:

\[ \text{slope} = \frac{\text{change in } y}{\text{change in } x} \]

From the table, we can see that:

  • When \(x\) changes from \(0\) to \(2\), \(y\) changes from \(0\) to \(10\).
  • The change in \(y\) is \(10 - 0 = 10\).
  • The change in \(x\) is \(2 - 0 = 2\).

Now, we can calculate the slope:

\[ \text{slope} = \frac{10}{2} = 5 \]

Thus, the slope of the proportional relationship is 5.

The correct response is:

The slope is 5.
