Perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals of each other.
Let's find the slope of the first line.
Change it into slope-intercept form.

The slope of the first line is
Since,

Now use the point-slope form of a line with the slope qnd point (1,3),

.
.
.
Let's check the solution graphically.
