    Answer:

    (D) 4

    Step-by-step explanation:

    In order to find the slope you need to rearrange the equation so that y is alone on one side, so:

    4x – y = 3

    -y = -4x + 3

    y = 4x – 3

    The slope is the coefficient in front of x, so the slope is 4

    Answer: 4

    Step-by-step explanation: First convert the equation to y = mx + b form.

    Start by subtract 4x from both sides to get -y = -4x + 3.

    From here, divide both sides by -1 to get y = 4x – 3.

    Now in y = mx + b form, the slope is the multiplier, or the m.

    So here, 4 is the slope.
