The perpendicular line would have a slope of 1/3.
Perpendicular lines have opposite and reciprocal slopes.
To do the opposite, take the original slope (-3) and change the sign (3).
To do the reciprocal, take the slope we changed (3) and flip it as a fraction (1/3).
This gives us a new slope of 1/3.
I would assume it would be dividing both sides by three although if someone were to actually solve this I would say multiply 2 and 3 together first.
Hope this helps :)
Change 13% as a fraction. It will be 13/100
Now, which is bigger? 13/100 or 3/25
Cross multiply and 13/100 is bigger.
13 3
___ X ____
100 25
13×25=325 and 3×100=300. Now you know 13/100 is bigger.
The answer is 13/100
