Answer: Slope = [tex]\frac{9}{5}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope = [tex]\frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}[/tex]

[tex]x_{1}[/tex] = 2

[tex]x_{2}[/tex] = 7

[tex]y_{1}[/tex] = 1

[tex]y_{2}[/tex] = 10

Substituting into the formula , we have :

Slope = [tex]\frac{10 - 1}{7 - 2}[/tex]

Slope = [tex]\frac{9}{5}[/tex]
