do you need it in slope-intercept form or point-slope form?

D = x+ 2

In b there is no -in front of x

Okay so the slope of the perpendicular line will be -x because the reciprocal of -1 is -1. so now since we do not have the y-intercept we cant put it into that form yet so we use point-slope form: y - y1 = m(x - x1)
plug in the points: y-(-2) = -1(x-(-4))
Simplify: y+2=-1(x+4)
Distribute the -1: y+2=-x-4
We have to get y alone so subtract 2 from each side: y= -x-6 s
