Answer 2

Directly change the background color of specific item selected through slicer is not possible, but an alternate way  is to -

1. Create a measure in powerbi to retrieve the selected value. Refer to the below dax function

SelectedItem = SELECTEDVALUE(YourTable[YourColumn], "No Selection")

2. Now you can display this measure on a card visual and set the background color as per your wish.
