Answer:

y = x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

A line that is perpindicular to y = -x + 20 would be y = x. Now, we have to solve for the y-intercept. Knowing the line must cross through (-4,2) we can solve for the y-intercept using the equation y = x which is just up one over one. Going over 4 units to get to x = 0 means going up 4 units to get to y = 6. Now we know the y-intercept is 6. This means the final equation is y = x +6.
