Problem

If the line $L$ in the $xy$ -plane has half the slope and twice the $y$ -intercept of the line $y = \frac{2}{3} x + 4$ , then an equation for $L$ is:

$\textbf{(A)}\ y = \frac{1}{3} x + 8 \qquad \textbf{(B)}\ y = \frac{4}{3} x + 2 \qquad \textbf{(C)}\ y =\frac{1}{3}x+4\qquad\\ \textbf{(D)}\ y =\frac{4}{3}x+4\qquad \textbf{(E)}\ y =\frac{1}{3}x+2$
