1. **State the problem:** We need to find which polynomial has a leading coefficient of 4 and a degree of 3.
2. **Recall definitions:**
- The **degree** of a polynomial is the highest power of $x$ in the polynomial.
- The **leading coefficient** is the coefficient of the term with the highest degree.
3. **Analyze each polynomial:**
- Polynomial 1: $3x^4 - 2x^2 + 4x - 7$
- Degree is 4 (highest power is $x^4$)
- Leading coefficient is 3 (coefficient of $x^4$)
- Polynomial 2: $4 + x - 4x^2 + 5x^3$
- Degree is 3 (highest power is $x^3$)
- Leading coefficient is 5 (coefficient of $x^3$)
- Polynomial 3: $4x^4 - 3x^3 + 2x^2$
- Degree is 4
- Leading coefficient is 4
- Polynomial 4: $2x + x^2 + 4x^3$
- Degree is 3
- Leading coefficient is 4
4. **Conclusion:** The polynomial with degree 3 and leading coefficient 4 is polynomial 4: $2x + x^2 + 4x^3$.
**Final answer:** Polynomial 4: $2x + x^2 + 4x^3$
