$\begin{gathered} \text{The slope intercept form is defined as} \\ y=mx+b,\text{ where }m\text{ is the slope} \\ \text{Given: }y=-1+3x \\ \text{rearrange the given and we have} \\ y=-1+3x\Rightarrow y=3x-1 \\ \text{Looking at the slope intercept form, the coefficient of the given is }m=3 \\ \text{Therefore, the slope of the equation }y=-1+3x\text{ is }3 \end{gathered}$
