### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Slope of a Displacement-Time Graph**: - The slope of a displacement-time graph represents the velocity of the object. - Mathematically, slope (m) is defined as the change in displacement (Δy) divided by the change in time (Δx), which can be expressed as: \[ \text{slope} = \frac{\Delta \text{displacement}}{\Delta \text{time}} = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} \] ...
