For every 3 feet of horizontal run, there is a vertical change of 1 foot of assent or desent. i.e.: if the bank is falling away from the top of the slope towards the toe of the slope ata rate of 1 foot drop for every 3 feet horizontal, or away from the top, the ratio of desent is 3:1 (3 feet out for every 1 foot down).

If you mean: y = 12x+1 then it has a positive slope of 12 and a y intercept of 1
The slope of the perpendicular is the negative reciprocal of the slope of a line. In this case, - (1 / -1) = 1.The slope of the perpendicular is the negative reciprocal of the slope of a line. In this case, - (1 / -1) = 1.The slope of the perpendicular is the negative reciprocal of the slope of a line. In this case, - (1 / -1) = 1.The slope of the perpendicular is the negative reciprocal of the slope of a line. In this case, - (1 / -1) = 1.
p (2,-1) and slope 3
If you mean points of (6, -2) and (-3, 7) then the slope works out as -1
If you mean points of (-2, -1) and (3, 5) then the slope is 6/5
