if the given line has slope m, then your perpendicular line must have slope -1/m. Then use the point-slope form of the line you want.
So, for the first one, you need a line through (2,-2) with slope 1:
y+2 = 1(x-2)
Do the others in like wise...
write an equation in slope intercept form of the line passing through the given points and is perpendicular to the graph of the given equations
1) (2,-2) ; y=-x-2
2)(2,-1) ; y=-3/2x+6
3)(4,2) ; y=-3
4)(-2,3) ; y-1/2x1
