Question

if the line x41=y21=zp2\frac {x-4}{1}=\frac{y-2}{1}=\frac{z-p}{2} lies on the place 2x4y+z=72x-4y+z=7, then value of p is​

A.

–7

B.

1

C.

7

D.

0

Correct option is C

SolutionLine: x41=y21=zp2Plane: 2x4y+z=7Let λR be the parameter. Then:x=4+λ,y=2+λ,z=p+2λSubstitute into the plane equation:2(4+λ)4(2+λ)+(p+2λ)=78+2λ84λ+p+2λ=7(2λ4λ+2λ)+p=7=>0+p=7=>p=7\textbf{Solution} \\\text{Line: } \frac{x - 4}{1} = \frac{y - 2}{1} = \frac{z - p}{2} \\\text{Plane: } 2x - 4y + z = 7 \\[8pt]\text{Let } \lambda \in \mathbb{R} \text{ be the parameter. Then:} \\x = 4 + \lambda,\quad y = 2 + \lambda,\quad z = p + 2\lambda \\[6pt]\text{Substitute into the plane equation:} \\2(4 + \lambda) - 4(2 + \lambda) + (p + 2\lambda) = 7 \\[6pt]8 + 2\lambda - 8 - 4\lambda + p + 2\lambda = 7 \\[6pt](2\lambda - 4\lambda + 2\lambda) + p = 7 \Rightarrow 0 + p = 7 \\[6pt]\Rightarrow \boxed{p = 7}
