Solve the line equation for "y", to get it in slope-intercept form. You can immediately read the slope from this equation.Divide -1 by (slope of this first line) to get the slope of the second line - the one perpendicular to the given line. Write an equation for any line with this slope.
Without an equality sign the expression given can't be considered to be a straight line equation
As for example in the straight line equation of y=3x+5 the slope is 3 and the y intercept is 5
y = 3x/4 + 7
x - 4y = 3 is the slope of a line perpendicular to line whose equation is y -5 3x plus 8 3.
If you mean y = -3x -6 then the slope of the line is -3
Slope = 3
The slope of the graph of that equation is -1.
If you mean y = 3x then the slope is 3 and there is no y intercept

Equation of given line: 3x + y = 15 or y = -3x + 15 Slope of given line = coefficient of x = -3 Slope of perperndicular = -1/(slope of given line) = -1 / (-3) = 1/3
As for example if the slope is 3 and the y intercept is 6 then the equation is: y=3x+6
The equation of the line can be written as y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. Given that the slope is 3 and the y-intercept is (0, -10), the equation of the line is y = 3x - 10.
Solve the line equation for "y", to get it in slope-intercept form. You can immediately read the slope from this equation.Divide -1 by (slope of this first line) to get the slope of the second line - the one perpendicular to the given line. Write an equation for any line with this slope.

Assuming that you meant that the equation is y=3x+1, the slope is 3. This is because the equation of any line in the form of y=mx+b has a slope of "m". Therefore, the value of m in this equation is 3.
y = -3x + 7 is an equation which gives us a line parallel to the line y = -3x + 1, or the line -3x - 1. The equation given represents the slope-intercept form of the equation for a line. Slope-intercept takes the form y = mx + b. In this form the the value of m represents the slope of the line, while b represents the Y intercept. All lines with the same slope are parallel (unless they're exactly the same.) So to find a parallel line, we simply adjust the Y intercept to any value other than the one given.
