The graph below shows four straight lines, P, Q, R, and S:
Which line is represented by the function f(x) = 4x - 3? A. Line P B. Line Q C. Line R D. Line S

function f(x) = 4x - 3? f(x) is the "y" value on the graph. So this is y= 4x-3 try a few points: if x is 0, what is y? any idea ?
I'm just really bad at graphs But i got B
y= 4x-3 if x is 0, what is y? any idea ?
-4
?
do you know how to replace the x with 0: erase the x, and write in 0 in y = 4*x-3 then simplify. what do you get ?
-12
remember "order of operations" you do the multiply first, then the add or subtract.
-3
jj found the answer: when x=0 you do y = 4*0 - 3 4 times 0 is 0, so y= 0-3 and that is y=-3 so (0,-3) is on the line. can yo find (0,-3) ? you put your finger on the x-axis (horizontal line) at 0 move down 3 steps. which line do you get to ?
line R
wouldnt it be line s
