A plane meets the coordinate axes at \(P, Q, R\) respectively. If the centroid of \(\triangle P Q R\) is \(\left(1, \frac{1}{2}, \frac{1}{3}\right)\), then the equation of the plane is

  1. A \(2 x+4 y+3 z=5\)
  2. B \(x+2 y+3 z=3\)
  3. C \(x+4 y+6 z=5\)
  4. D \(2 x-2 y+6 z=3\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(x+2 y+3 z=3\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let the equation of the plane be \(\frac{x}{a}+\frac{y}{b}+\frac{z}{c}=1\) Since, plane meets the coordinate axes at \(P, Q, R\) respectively. So, the coordinates of the points \(P, Q, R\) are \((a, 0,0),(0, b, 0),(0,0, c)\) respectively. Also, centroid of \(\triangle P Q R\) is…
