Find the equation in slope-intercept form of the line that is the perpendicular bisector of the segment between (-3,4) and (3,-8)

Can you help me figure this out?

Thank you!

slope is (-8-4)/(3 - -3) = -2

Now plug in the point-slope form:

y-4 = -2(x+3)

Now it's easy, right?

y = 1/2x - 2

Is that right?
