You can put this solution on YOUR website!
2x=y
y=2x this line equation has a slope=2.
------------------------------------------
x=4 represents a verticle line through the points(4,0)
thus a perpendicular line is a horizontal line through y=2.
y=2 is the line perpendicular to x=4 & passing through (4,2).
