    1/3

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Solve 3x + y = 4 for y to find the slope of this line: y = - 3x + 4. That slope is - 3.

    Any line perpendicular to 3x + y = 4 will have a slope which is the negative reciprocal of - 3: + 1/3.

    1/3

    Step-by-step explanation:

    3x + y = 4

    y = - 3x + 4

    the perpendicular slope is the reciprocal of the original slope.

    so the slope would be 1/3
