Answer:

4x - y - 12 = 0

Explanation:

To find the equation of a line when a point passing through it and its slope are give we use slope and one - point form

It is given by:
y - y_1 = m(x - x_1).

where,
(x_1, y_1) is the point that passes through it and m is the slope of the line.

Substituting we have:
y - 0 = 4(x - 3)


\implies y =4x - 12


\implies 4x - y - 12 = 0.
