Answer:

rise = -3; run = 1

or

rise = 3; run = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is

y = -3x + 1

The equation is in the slope-intercept form,

y = mx + b

m = -3

The slope is -3.

slope = rise/run = -3

We need to write -3 as a fraction to see the rise and the run.

-3 = -3/1 = 3/-1

rise/run = -3/1

rise/run = 3/-1

You can have a rise of -3 and a run of 1, or you can have a rise of 3 and a run of -1. They are both correct.
