If a point P(α,β,γ)P\left(\alpha, \beta, \gamma\right) satisfying \left({αβγ\begin{cases}\alpha & \beta & \gamma\end{cases}\right)\left(\begin{cases}2 & 10 & 8 \\ 9 & 3 & 8 \\ 8 & 4 & 8\end{cases}\right) = \left(\begin{cases}0 & 0 & 0\end{cases}\right) lies on the plane 2x+4y+3z=52x + 4y + 3z = 5, then 6α+9β+7γ6\alpha + 9\beta + 7\gamma is equal to

Options

  1. A54\dfrac{5}{4}
  2. B−1- 1
  3. C1111
  4. D115\dfrac{11}{5}

Correct answer

C. 1111

Step-by-step solution

Given,

\left(\begin{cases}\alpha & \beta & \gamma\end{cases}\right)\left(\begin{cases}2 & 10 & 8 \\ 9 & 3 & 8 \\ 8 & 4 & 8\end{cases}\right) = \left(\begin{cases}0 & 0 & 0\end{cases}\right)

⇒ \left(\begin{cases}2\alpha + 9\beta + 8\gamma & 10\alpha + 3\beta + 4\gamma & 8\alpha + 8\beta + 8\gamma\end{cases}\right) = \left(\begin{cases}0 & 0 & 0\end{cases}\right)

Now on comparing both side we get,

2α+2β+8γ=0…(1)2\alpha + 2\beta + 8\gamma = 0 \ldots \left(1\right)

10α+3β+4γ=0…(2)10\alpha + 3\beta + 4\gamma = 0 \ldots \left(2\right)

8α+8β+8γ=0…(3)8\alpha + 8\beta + 8\gamma = 0 \ldots \left(3\right)

Now from \left(1\right)and(3)and \left(3\right) by cross multiplication we get,

α1=β6=γ−7=k⇒α=k,β=6k,γ=−7k\dfrac{\alpha}{1} = \dfrac{\beta}{6} = \dfrac{\gamma}{- 7} = k ⇒ \alpha = k, \beta = 6k, \gamma = - 7k

Point P(α,β,γ)P\left(\alpha, \beta, \gamma\right) lie on the plane 2x+4y+3z=5⇒2α+4β+3γ=52x + 4y + 3z = 5 ⇒ 2\alpha + 4\beta + 3\gamma = 5

⇒2k+24k−21k=5⇒ 2k + 24k - 21k = 5

⇒k=1⇒ k = 1

Hence, 6α+9β+7γ=6k+54k−49k=11k=116\alpha + 9\beta + 7\gamma = 6k + 54k - 49k = 11k = 11.
