Ifx=a, y=b, z=cis a solution of the system of linear equations
x+8y+7z=0
9x+2y+3z=0
x+y+z=0
Such that the pointa,b,clies on the planex+2y+z=6, then2a+b+cequals:

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

x+8y+7z=0  ...i        9x+2y+3z=0  ...ii        x+y+z=0  ...iii             .....

Solve the equation i &iii

 7y+6z=0

Solve the equation ii &iii

7x+z=0

x=λ & y=-6-7λ7 & z=-7λ

x=λ& y=6λ& z=-7λ

  λ+12λ7λ=66λ=6λ=1|2λ+6λ7λλ=1

Hence, a=1, b=6, c=-7

2a+b+c=1
