Question

What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line whose equation is 3x+y=-6. Show work

Answer 1

I think the answer would be slope is -3...as well as the y-intercept is (0,-6)

Explanation:

Answer 2

1/3

Explanation:

3x + y = -6

y = -3x - 6

The slopes of two perpendicular lines are negative reciprocals of each other

so negative reciprocal of -3 is 1/3
