Given, y = mx +b To find the x intercept set y=0 because that's where the line crosses the x axis; 0 = mx + b then solve for x; x = -b/m this is the x intercept.

What conditions will the magnitude of the displacement be equal to the distance?
Only if your entire walk is in the same straight line. Otherwise, no.Example:Start anywhere on the track at the high-school football field, and walk all the way around it.The distance you walk is 1/4 mile. Your displacement is zero, because you're now standingexactly where you began.
What has no beginning middle or end scientifically?
-- a straight line -- a circle -- the universe
Which describes the path of a gas particle between collisions with other particles?
Straight line
Example of Straight line?
Tricky. This would be the norm in an ideal inertial reference frame as assumed by Newtonian mechanics. The problem is that the real world is an accelerated reference frame. Gravitational forces act on just about everything and bend paths and alter velocities. For constant speed though it's hard to beat the photon, but even that has its path altered by gravity and medium. So, a photon at the edge of space headed directly away from the center of mass of the universe would be an example.
