  1. Since the triangles are similar, the slope of line segment AD and line segment BD are the same.
  2. The initial value and slope of the graph are 66 and 44 respectively.

<h3>Why are the two slopes the same?</h3>

Considering the two right-angled triangles (ΔABD and ΔBCE) with the following points A(2, 154), B(1, 110), D(2, 110) and E(1, 66).

Since the triangles are similar, the slope of line segment AD is given by:

Tanθ = AD/BE

Tanθ = (154 - 110)/(110 - 66)

Tanθ = 44/44

Tanθ = 1.

Also, the slopes of line segment BD is given by:

Tan∅ = BD/CE

Tan∅ = (2 - 1)/(1 - 0)

Tan∅ = 1/1

Tan∅ = 1.

Therefore, the slope of line segment AD and line segment BD are the same because θ is equal to ∅.

<h3>What are the initial value and slope of the graph?</h3>

By critically observing the graph, we can logically deduce that the initial value of this graph is 66 and it represents the shark's distance at the initial time (0 minute).

For the slope, we have:

Slope = Δy/Δx

Slope = (154 - 66)/(2 - 0)

Slope = 88/2

Slope = 44.
