Answer 1

Explanation:

the slope of a line is the ratio

y coordinate difference / x coordinate difference

when going from one point on the line to another.

so, when going from (3, 7) to (10, 10) :

x changes by +7 (from 3 to 10).

y changes by +3 (from 7 to 10).

therefore, the slope is +3/+7 = 3/7
