3x - y = 5 is the equation of a nonvertical line.

Definition: Two nonvertical lines are perpendicular if their slopes are negative reciprocals of each other.

So we need to find the slope of the given line, and check which of the other lines have a slope that satisfies the definition.

Solve for y.

3x - y = add y and subtract 5 to both sides

3x - 5 = y which yields the slope of 3

Thus, the line that have a slope of -1/3 is the required line.
