This equation is in slope-intercept form; y = mx+b.
m is the slope and b is the y-intercept, so to find the slope you'd look at the coefficient of x.
In this equation, y = 3x+5, the coefficient of x is 3, so that means that the slope of this equation is 3.
Answer is:
3 is the slope
1.75-0.8= 0.95m
0.95/2. to get equal halves would be 0.475m just under half a meter
