Run is the two x coordinates when finding the slope (change) of a line. They go on the bottom (rise over run)

The rise is the difference between the ordinates (vertical values) of two points on a line whereas the run is the difference between their abscissae (horizontal values) of the same two points.
it is called the slope
You divide the difference in y-coordinates by the difference in x-coordinates. Or whatever the variables are.
Rise/run is the slope of a line.
You measure the change in the vertical direction (rise) per unit change in the horizontal direction (run). The rate of change is constant between A and B if AB is a straight line. Take any two points, A = (xa, ya) and B = (xb, yb) then the average rate of change, between A and B = (yb- ya)/(xb- xa).
