The plane 2x−2y−3z−14=0 and the line joining (1, 2, 4) and (3, 3, 0) intersect at
A
(5, 2, 0)
B
(5, 4, -4)
C
(-3, -1, -6)
D
(10, -15, 12)
Answer
(5, 4, -4)
Explanation
Solution
Any point on the given line is (1+2t,2+t,4−4t)
This lies in the given plane;
i.e. 2(1+2t)−2(2+t)−3(4−4t)−14=0
(i.e.,) 4t−2t+12t+2−4−12−14=0
(i.e.) 14t−28=0
∴t = 2
∴ Intersection point is (5, 4, -4)
