<h2>Answer:   y = - ¹/₂ x + 5 </h2>

<h3>Step-by-step explanation: </h3>

<u>Find the slope of the perpendicular line</u>

When two lines are perpendicular, the product of their slopes is -1. This means that the slopes are negative-reciprocals of each other.

                 ⇒  if the slope of this line = 2     (y = 2x + 2)

                      then the slope of the perpendicular line (m) = - ¹/₂

<u>Determine the equation</u>

We can now use the point-slope form (y - y₁) = m(x - x₁)) to write the equation for this line:  

                               ⇒  y - 3 =  - ¹/₂  (x - 4)

We can also write the equation in the slope-intercept form by making y the subject of the equation and expanding the bracket to simplify:

                             since   y - 3 =  - ¹/₂  (x - 4)

                                              y = - ¹/₂ x + 5   (in slope-intercept form)
