\

The point is $\"\"$ and the equation of line is $\"\"$ .

\

Rewrite the equation $\"\"$ in the slope - intercept form by solving for y.

\

Subtract 3 from each side.

\

$\"\"$

\

$\"\"$ .

\

The equation $\"\"$ is in the form $\"\"$ where m is slope and b is y - intercept.

\

Therefore slope of given line is 2.

\

Because the slopes of perpendicular lines are negative reciprocals, the slope of perpendicular line through $\"\"$ is $\"\"$ . $\"\"$

\

To find the y - intercept, substitute the values of $\"\"$ in the slope - intercept from of equation $\"\"$ and solve for b.
