    Answer:

    y = x-3 is the equation

    Step-by-step explanation:

    If two lines are perpendicular, the product of their slopes is -1

    The general equation form of a straight line is;

    y = mx + b

    Fro the equation;

    y = -1x + 2

    The slope is -1

    So the equation of the perpendicular line is as follows;

    -1 * m = -1

    m = 1

    so we can use the point-slope equation form

    That would be:

    y-y1 = m(x-x1)

    y-3 = 1(x-6)

    y-3 = x-6

    y = x-6+3

    y = x-3
