Answer:

y = (1/3)x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The general structure form of a line in slope-intercept form is:

y = mx + b

In this form, "m" represents the slope and "b" represents the y-intercept.

The slope of a perpendicular line is the opposite-signed, reciprocal of the original line's slope. Therefore, if the slope of the original line is m = -3, the new slope is m = 1/3.

The y-intercept can be found by plugging the new slope and the values from the point (-3, 6) into the slope-intercept form equation.

m = 1/3

x = -3

y = 6

y = mx + b                                  <----- Slope-intercept form

6 = (-3)(1/3) + b                           <----- Insert values

6 = -1 + b                                    <----- Multiply -3 and 1/3

7 = b                                           <----- Add 1 to both sides

Now, that you have the slope and y-intercept, you can construct the equation of the perpendicular line.

y = (1/3)x + 7
