The slope of the function for rise/run would be 3/2, this is because; The function passes through (-5,1) and (1,10). Lets find the change on the y and x axis. For the x axis; -5 to 1. That is a change of positive 6. -5+6=1 For the y axis; 1 to 10. That is a change of positive 9. 1+9=10 For the slope we must put rise (change in y axis) over run (change in x axis) to get 3/2 when simplified from 9/6. For every 2 units of rise in the x axis the y axis rises by 3.
