Answer:

[tex] \frac{3}{2} [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

to find the slope (gradient) use the formula

[tex]slope = \frac{change \: in \: y}{change \: in \: x} [/tex]

[tex] slope = \frac{10 - 1}{7 - 1} [/tex]

[tex]slope = \frac{9}{6} [/tex]

9/6 can be simplified to 3/2 (as you do 9 ÷ 3 = 3 and 6 ÷ 3 = 2)

the slope is 3/2
