No. The distance of a line on a graph will not affect how steep it is. Distance does not affect slope.
The slope for a straight line graph is the ratio of the amount by which the graph goes up (the rise) for every unit that it goes to the right (the run). If the graph goes down, the slope is negative. For a curved graph, the gradient at any point is the slope of the tangent to the graph at that point.
The slope of a distance-time graph represents speed.
the slope.
As the slope get closer to zero, the graph becomes close to horizontal.

The slope of a velocity-time graph represents acceleration.
acceleration
It rotated the line about the point of intersection with the y-axis.
"Slope" is the steepness of the line on any graph.
The slope of a velocity-time graph represents acceleration.
The slope of a distance-time graph represents speed.
No, the slope on a position-time graph represents the object's velocity, not acceleration. Acceleration would be represented by the slope of the velocity-time graph.
If velocity is constant, the slope of the graph on a position vs. time graph will be a straight line. The slope of this line will represent the constant velocity of the object.
the slope.
you need 2 points on the line y2-y1 slope=----- x2-x1
