How to use values in list from one function in a second function

I am working on coding a precalculous problem. I was able to write one function and get an (x,y) plot in a python list. I want to be able to call list[0] and list[1] of the first function in a second function. How do I setup my functions so that I can use the outputs from the first function as inputs in the second functions?

import numpy as np  import sympy as sy    # find the point of intersection of two points by using a linear function    def intersection(slope1, yintercept1, slope2, yintercept2):      xval = -1*slope1+slope2      recip = np.reciprocal(xval)      xval = yintercept1*recip      yval = slope2*xval      point = [xval, yval]      return point  print(intersection((sy.Rational(-6,7)), 9, sy.Rational(7,6), 0))    #find the distance two points are apart.    def distance(x, y):    #I want to call the point from my intersection function here and put them into the distance formula   to find out how far away the point is from the origin.       print(distance(0,0))
