Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(7\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let the line be \(L: \dfrac{x}{1} = \dfrac{y-1}{2} = \dfrac{z-2}{3} = k\). Any point \(Q\) on the line is given by \(Q(k, 2k+1, 3k+2)\). The direction vector of the line is \(\vec{v} = \hat{i} + 2\hat{j} + 3\hat{k}\). The vector…
