ANSWER

y - x = - 1

EXPLANATION

The required equation passes through:

(4,3) and is perpendicular to x+y=4.

Rewrite the given equation in slope-intercept form:

y = - x + 4

The slope of this line is -1.

The slope of the required line is perpendicular to this line, so we find the negative reciprocal of this slope.

m= - \frac{1}{ - 1} = 1

The equation of the line can be found using:

y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)

We substitute the slope and point to obtain:

y - 3 = 1(x - 4)

We simplify to get:

y - 3 = x - 4

y - x = - 4 + 3

The required equation is

y - x = - 1
