Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope-intercept form of an equation of a line:
[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]
m - slope
b - y-intercept
We have the equation
[tex]f(x)=4x-3\to m=4,\ b=-3[/tex]
y-intercept = -3
Therefore it's the line S
f(x) = 4x - 3 is written in slope intercept form. The general structure is:
y = mx + b
m is the slope ([tex]\frac{rise}{run}[/tex])
b is the y-intercept (where the line intersects the y-axis)
In this case the line you are looking for must have a slope of 4 or a rise of 4 and a run of 1, and the y-intercept of (0, -3).
The easiest thing to do when trying to match a graph with the equation is looking at the y-intercept. Below I provided an image where I labeled all the y-intercepts.
As you can see below line S is the only line that intercepts the y-axis at (0, -3). To ensure that line S represents the function f(x) = 4x - 3 we can take the slope. Again, as you can see the rise of this line is 4 and the run is 1 corresponding with the equation!
Line S is representing f(x) = 4x - 3
Hope this helped!
