Answer:
see explanation
Explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
y = - 4x - 1 ← is in slope- intercept form
with slope m = - 4
Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is
= -
= -
=
, thus
y =
x + c ← is the partial equation of the line
To find c substitute (- 2, 2) into the partial equation
2 = -
+ c ⇒ c =

y =
x +
← in slope- intercept form
