slope as you should already know is rise/run, or how much something moves in relation something else, namely how much the y-axis go up as the x-axis moves sideways, one moves, the other follows, but the increments will be different, sometimes the same, but usually different.
the y-intercept means, when the graph of the equation touches or intercepts the y-axis, and when that happens x = 0, or the horizontal distance is at bay.
for the slope on 6), 30 or 30/1 means, for every 1 year(x) passed, the worth(y) increased by 30, or jumped by 30 units, so as the x-axis moved 1, the y-axis moved 30. After 12 years 30 * 12 = 360, and we add the initial 720 and we end up with 1080.
the y-intercept, well, as aforementioned is when x = 0, is year 0.
