Answer:

y=x+4

Explanation:

just flipped the sign of the slope and the line will go the other way

this question is worded a little weird because the y is not what represents slope in the formula so. Assuming that, the answer to the first part should be correct

For perpendicular lines, you need to find the negative recipricol which would be 1 for -1
