Question

Which of the following graphs represents the equation y - 4 = 3(x - 1)?

Answer 1

You could plug in the coordinates from the graphs into the equation
Whichever works is the correct answer

Another way to find the answer is to solve for x when y is 0, and then find which graph has that value at y=0
0-4=3(x-1)
-4=3x-3
3x=-1
x=-(1/3)
The graph that appears to have the value of negative one third at y=0 is correct
