what is the slope of a line that is perpendicular to 3y+x=21? 1. -3 2. -1/3 3. 0 4. 1/3 5. 3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well first, what do you get for the slope of that original line? Then you can find the perpendicular slope

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-1/3 is the slope of the original line.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So to find the perpendicular slope you take the reciprocal of that and change it's sign.
