Answer:

(a) 3

Explanation:

Calculate the slope m of the line given using the gradient formula

m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0,3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (3, 2)

m =
(2-3)/(3-0) = -
(1)/(3)

given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is


m_(perpendicular) = -
(1)/(m) = -
(1)/(-(1)/(3) ) = 3 → (a)
