Let [tex]k:y=m_1x+b_1[/tex] and [tex]l:y=m_2x+b_2[/tex]

[tex]l\ \perp\ k\iff m_1m_2=-1\to m_2=-\dfrac{1}{m_1}[/tex]

We have

[tex]y=4x-3\to m_1=4[/tex]

Therefore

[tex]m_2=-\dfrac{1}{4}[/tex]

We have the equation of a line:

[tex]y=-\dfrac{1}{4}x+b[/tex]

Put the coordinates of the point (0, 7) to the equation of a line:

[tex]7=-\dfrac{1}{4}(0)+b\\\\\7=b\to b=7[/tex]

Answer: [tex]\boxed{y=-\dfrac{1}{4}x+7}[/tex]
