To find the slope (m) of the line that goes from the point \((0, 1)\) to the point \((3, 7)\), we can use the slope formula:

\[ m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} \]

In this case, we can assign the following values:

  • \((x_1, y_1) = (0, 1)\)
  • \((x_2, y_2) = (3, 7)\)

Now, substitute these values into the formula:

\[ m = \frac{7 - 1}{3 - 0} = \frac{6}{3} = 2 \]

Therefore, the slope of the line is \(m = 2\).
