ANSWER

[tex]y = 4x - 2[/tex]

EXPLANATION

The equation of a straight line can be found using the formula

[tex]y =mx + b[/tex]

We have that,the y-value increases by 4 for every x that increases by 1.

This implies that, the slope is

[tex]m = \frac{4}{1} = 4[/tex]

The line also crosses the y-axis at –2.

Hence the y-intercept is b=-2.

Therefore the equation is

[tex]y = 4x - 2[/tex]

The correct answer is A
