If $\alpha$ and $\beta$ are the roots of the equation $3x^2+x-1=0$, where $\alpha>\beta$, find the value of $\frac{\alpha}{\beta}+\frac{\beta}{\alpha}$. $ \textbf{(A) }\frac{7}{9}\qquad\textbf{(B) }-\frac{7}{9}\qquad\textbf{(C) }\frac{7}{3}\qquad\textbf{(D) }-\frac{7}{3}\qquad\textbf{(E) }-\frac{1}{9} $
