Find the slope of the line that passes through (1, 3) and (7, 10).

Question

Simplify your answer and write it as a proper fraction, improper fraction, or integer.

Answer 1

The slope formula is given by:

m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

Given the points (1, 3) and (7, 10):

m = (10 - 3) / (7 - 1)
m = 7 / 6

Therefore, the slope of the line passing through the points (1, 3) and (7, 10) is 7/6.
