The CPU speed determines how many calculations it can perform in one second of time. The higher the speed, the more calculations it can perform, thus making the computer faster.
Please, in the future, post just one problem at a time.
Looking at Problem #1: The line intersects the y-axis at (0,-3) and intersects the x-axis at (1,-1). At least, this is what I see; your graph is small.
-3-[-1]
The slope of that line is then m = rise / run = ------------ = +2.
0 - 1
[change in y]
Slope = m = rise / run = --------------------
[change in x]
