Answer:

[tex]-\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

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:

[tex]3x-y=6[/tex]

[tex]y=3x-6[/tex]

The slope of this line is 3.

Thus the negative reciprocal would be [tex]-\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
