Answer:
Rise= y-axis
Run=x-axis
Slope=rate of change
Step-by-step explanation:
Think of run as you are running on the ground. The x-axis is positioned to look like you would be able to run on a flat horizontal line. When it is referring to run, it means the y-axis because when you run you go up in a way, just like the y-axis. Rise and Run is a phrase used to represent slope because it is indicating that to calculate slope, you take your “y” value over your “x” value as in a fraction. For example
. Slope is just how fast a certain unit is changing at a consistent “speed”.
