Answer:
The slope of the perpendicular line is -3.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : The slope of the line is [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
To find : What is the slope of a line perpendicular to this line?
Solution :
We know,
When two lines are perpendicular then one slope is negative reciprocate of other slope.
We have given the slope of one line is [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
The negative reciprocate of slope is
[tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] became -3,
Therefore, The slope of the perpendicular line is -3.
