Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(\frac{x+1}{3}=\frac{y+1}{2}=\frac{z+1}{-1}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\frac{x-1}{2}=\frac{y-2}{3}=\frac{z-3}{4}=\lambda \Rightarrow x=2\lambda+1, y=3\lambda+2, z=4\lambda+3\) \(\frac{x-4}{5}=\frac{y-1}{2}=z=\mu \Rightarrow x=5\mu+4, y=2\mu+1, z=\mu\)
