Slope is the change of your y variable divided by your change in the x variable.
So let's say you start at (3,0) and walk to (6,12)
Then your slope (generally called "m") is
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) = (12 - 0)/(6 - 3) = 12/3 = 4
So your slope is 4. That means for every one you move right, you move four up.
its useful in graphing! equations, inequalities, ect pretty much graphing!
how quickly or slowly the object is moving
The y-intercept, together with the slope of the line, can also be used in graphing linear equations. The slope and y-intercept of a line can be obtained easily by inspection if the equeation of the line is of the form y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
Nothing. Slope is a measure used in graphing and algebra. Feet and inches are units of linear measurement.
Rate can be the slope of a line when some variables are graphed. Ex: When graphing distance vs time for a moving object the slope of the line is the rate.

None. Different people prefer different ways of working.
When you graph a line using only the slope and a point, you start by graphing the point.
y=mx+b m is slope. slope is rise over run b is y-int
Plot the y-axis, which is the b in the y=mx+b in the slope intercept equation. Then, you put your slope and plot the line.
