Answer:
C.
Step-by-step explanation:
Before graphing this equation we first need to isolate y on one side like so...
y + 2 = 3(x+1) ... distribute the 3 to both values inside the parenthesis
y + 2 = 3x + 3 ... subtract 2 on both sides
y = 3x + 1
Now that we have the y variable isolated we see that the slope of the function is 3, meaning that for every 1 unit right the line needs to move 3 units up. We also have the value where the line needs to cross the y-axis and that is 1. Using this information we see that the correct graph is C.
