Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) 132

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

DR's of plane is \[ 3+2,4-3,-7-6=5,1,-13 \] Equation of plane is \(5 x+y-13 z=d\) Plane passes through the point \((3,4,-7)\) \[ \begin{aligned} & 15+4+91=d \\ & d=110 \\ & \end{aligned} \] \(\Rightarrow\) \(\therefore\) Equation of plane is \(5 x+y-13 z=110\)…
