HELP i don’t get this
Find the Error when graphing the equation y = - 3x + 2 , a student plotted the y-intercept at 2, then moved down 3 units and to the left 2 units because the slope is negative , so both rise and run are negative Find his error and correct it .

Easy to spot.
The slope is -3 or -3/1 or 3/-1
So the student should have moved down 3, then to the right 1
or
the student could have moved up 3 , then to the left 1.

moving down 3 then to the left 2 would be -3/-2 or +3/2
which is not the given slope
