Answer:

1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line in slope-intercept form, y=mx+b, is m.

This means the slope of y=-3x-2 is -3.

If a line is perpendicular to the one given, it will have the opposite reciprocal slope.

The opposite of -3 is 3.

The reciprocal of 3 is 1/3.

Therefore, the opposite reciprocal of -3 is 1/3.
