STEP 1: What is a linear equation

STEP 2: Recall what is the slope of a line

STEP 3: Recall what is the y-intercept in a linear equation

STEP 4: Recall what is the slope-intercept form

The slope is given as 4 and the y-intercept is -3

STEP 5: Write the slope-intercept form

Plugging in the values of m = 4 and b = -3

we get y = 4x -3
