simulating vehicle velocity using ramp block

I want to simulate a vehicle moving at 10 m/s which starts to slow down after 5 seconds and stops at 7 seconds. I used ramp block to get velocity vs time graph. Parameters can be seen in picture uploaded. When I run the simulation for 10 seconds, it goes below 0 after 7 seconds and I do not want that. I want my graph to start at 10 m/s till 5 seconds then ramp down to 0 m/s till 7 seconds and then stay 0 m/s till 10 seconds. I suppose I have to add another block between but do not know which. Any help is greatly appreciated. I am sorry if it doesnt make sense. I am self learning Matlab and doesnt have enough to go with.

block Saturation with Upper Limit 10, Lower Limit 0, for example.
Thank you Alex, it worked out perfectly. Exactly what I wanted.
