Answer:

Gradient= 7

Explanation:

The equation is in y=mx+b form

Since they are asking you to find the gradient (which is also known as the slope) you just have to look at "m" in the equation

In this equation the slope/gradient is 7

Answer:


\rm{7

Explanation:

Hi there!

The equation of the line is written in slope-intercept form (y=mx+b)

m is the slope, and b is the y-intercept.

So, we can identify the slope pretty fast, just by looking at the equation.

y=7x+4

Slope (gradient)=7

Thus,
\rm{7 is our final answer.

Hope it helps! Enjoy your day!
