Mathwise, you would want to represent a slope with a number, in such a way that the
steeper slope would have a larger number. That way, you could look at the numbers of
two or more slopes, and just from the numbers, you could tell mathwise which slope is
more steep or less steep, and whether it slopes up or down.
It's just rise over run
There is no relationship between the slopes of parallel or perpendicular lines and their y-intercepts.
To determine if two lines will intersect using their slopes, compare the slopes of the two lines. If the slopes are different, the lines will intersect at one point. If the slopes are the same and the y-intercepts are different, the lines are parallel and will not intersect. If both the slopes and y-intercepts are the same, the lines are coincident and overlap entirely.
you compare something
.. with another math problem.... See if the question is the same or different.
Looking for information on slopes can be found at Math Warehouse, Purple Math available on the internet. These websites are dedicated to maths and give very specific information like slopes.

Slopes of perpendicular lines will be opposite reciprocals. This means that the slopes have opposite signs and that one is 1/ the other. For example, 2 and -1/2.
To "compare" usually means to find out which of two numbers is bigger, if any.
