What is the equation of a line through (0, 3) with slope 4?

A.

y = 4x - 3

B.

y = -4x + 3

C.

y = 4x + 3

✓ Correct
D.

y = 3x + 4

Detailed Explanation

Choice C is the best answer. y = mx + b = 4x + 3

Why others are wrong:
A: y = 4x - 3 is incorrect because it does not satisfy the equation.
B: y = -4x + 3 is incorrect because it does not satisfy the equation.
D: y = 3x + 4 is incorrect because it does not satisfy the equation.
