    1/3

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The slope of a line in slope-intercept form, y=mx+b, is m.

    This means the slope of y=-3x-2 is - 3.

    If a line is perpendicular to the one given, it will have the opposite reciprocal slope.

    The opposite of - 3 is 3.

    The reciprocal of 3 is 1/3.

    Therefore, the opposite reciprocal of - 3 is 1/3.
