The lock icon next to /dev/sda7 shows that it's mounted, therefore un-modifiable. Since /dev/sda7 is mounted at /, you won't be able to umount it from your current system. You'll have to boot from a "Live USB/Live CD" distribution, then you can use gparted to extend /dev/sda7 (which won't be mounted),
