Answer:
y= 1/3x
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the slope, convert the standard form of the equation into slope intercept form, y=mx+b.
3x-+y=-8
y=-3x-8
The slope is -3 and the slope of the new line will be 1/3 because the negative reciprocal creates a perpendicular line. Use the point-slope form to write the equation, then simplify and convert into the slope intercept form.
(y-1)=1/3(x-3)
y-1=1/3x-1
y=1/3x+0
y= 1/3x
