If the distance between planes , \(4x - 2y-4z + 1 = 0\) and \(4x -2y-4z+ d = 0\) is \(7,\) then \(d\) is

  1. A \(41\) or \(-42\)
  2. B \(42\) or \(-43\)
  3. C \(-41\) or \(43\)
  4. D \(-42\) or \(44\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(-41\) or \(43\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given planes are \(4 x-2 y-4 z+1=0\) and \(4 x-2 y-4 z+d=0\) They are parallel. Distance between them is \(\pm 7\) \(=\frac{d-1}{\sqrt{16+4+16}}\) \(\Rightarrow \frac{d-1}{6}=\pm 7\) \(\Rightarrow d=42+1\) or \(-42+1\) i.e. \(d=-41\) or 43.
