Slope (m) = 4

Explanation:

In order to find the slope of given equation, compare it with slope intercept form of an equation.

The slope intercept form of an equation is given by;

#y=mx+c# .......equation 1.
where,
m = slope and c = y-intercept

Now we have;
#y=4x#...........equation 2

Compare equation 1 and 2, we get
m = 4 and c = 0

Hence, the slope of given equation is #4#.
