The point is and the equation of line is
.
The equation is in the form
where m is slope and b is y - intercept.
Therefore slope of given line is .
Because the slopes of perpendicular lines are negative reciprocals, the slope of perpendicular line through is 2.
To find the y - intercept, substitute the values of in the slope - intercept from of equation
and solve for b.
Subtract 4 from each side.
\.
The y - intercept of perpendicular line is .
