the slope of L is 3
so, the slope of all perpendiculars to L is -1/3
So, now you have a point and a slope.
If that doesn't tell you which form of the equation to use, there's trouble in River City.
Find an equation of the line L, where L is perpendicular to y=3x and passes through the point (1,3)
Please help I'm not sure what formula to use or how to work out this problem

I know how to get the slope. In my answer key it has the solution of -1\3x +10/3
What i don't get is how they got the +10/3 part
What i don't get is how they got the +10/3 part
Y= -1/3 + 10/3
