To find the original slope, we need to use the formula for slope:

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

Using the coordinates (0, 7) and (3, 6), we can plug in the values:

m = (6 - 7)/(3 - 0)
= -1/3

Therefore, the original slope is -1/3.

To find the perpendicular slope, we need to find the negative reciprocal of the original slope. The negative reciprocal of -1/3 is 3/1, which simplifies to 3.

Therefore, the perpendicular slope is 3.
