$\begin{array}{c|c} x & 0 & 1\frac{1}{4} & 2 & 4\\ \hline y & 3 & 5\frac{1}{2} & & \end{array}$
The table given shows some values for a linear graph. Find the gradient of the line

Correct answer is B

Ler: (x1, y1) = (0, 3)

(x2, y2) = ( $\frac{5}{4}, \frac{11}{2}$ )

Using gradient, m = $\frac{y_2 - y_2}{x_2 - x_1}$

= $\frac{\frac{11}{2} - 3}{\frac{5}{4} - 0}$

= $\frac{11 - 6}{2} + \frac{5}{4}$

= $\frac{5}{} + \frac{5}{4}$

= $\frac{5}{2} \times \frac{4}{5}$

= 2
