No. they are parallel, since the slopes are both equal in this case 3. To be perpendicular the product of the slopes of both lines is equal to -1 (i.e., m1*m2 = -1).

y = 1/3x+4
No because the slope of the second equation is 1/4 and for it to be perpendicular to the first equation it should be 1/3
-1
- 1/3
Slope of given line = -3 Therefore, slope of perpendicular = 1/3
