Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete because the image is missing. However, I have attached an image from Lumen learning to help you understand how to calculate the difference between two points on a straight line graph.

Given two points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) on a straight line graph as shown in the image attached, a straight line drawn to join the two points gives the distance between the two points. This line drawn to join the points becomes the hypotenuse of a triangle ABC.

Given that;

(x2-x1) =a

(y2-y1)=b

distance =c

Recall that Pythagoras's theorem states that;

Then, according to Pythagoras's theorem;

c =√(x2-x1)2 + (y2-y1)2)

Simply put;

c=√(difference between abscissae)2 - (difference between ordinates)2

You can now substitute values and obtain a numerical result.

step-by-step explanation:

let

we know that

the y-intercept is the y-coordinate of the point when the value of x is equal to zero

so

the y-coordinate of the point a is the y-intercept

the answer part a) is

the value of y-intercept is

part b) find the slope m

we know that

the value of the slope is equal to

substitute the values

therefore

the answer part b) is

the value of the slope is equal to

the general answer is

the slope is

the value of y-intercept is
