Answer:

$-\frac{1}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line perpendicular to a line is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the line given.

The equation of the line is:

$3x-y=6$

$y=3x-6$

The slope of this line is 3.

Thus the negative reciprocal would be $-\frac{1}{3}$

2x + 5y = -8 . . . (1)
-133x - 4y = -8 . . . (2)

(1) * 4 => 8x + 20y = -32 . . . (3)
(2) * -5 => -665x + 20y = 32 . . . (4)

(3) - (4) => 673x = 0
x = 0
From (1), 2(0) + 5y = -8
5y = -8
y = -8/5
