Answer: D) y = -1/4x + 6

Explanation:

First turn the equation into slope-intercept form: y = 4x + 6

For a line to be perpendicular to another line, it's slope must be the opposite reciprocal of the other perpendicular line. Thus, the slope of the perpendicular line is -1/4. As the y-intercept of the line is (0,6), the lines must intersect as (0,6). Thus, the other line must also have a y-intercept of 6. Thus, the answer is D.

Hope this helps <3
