If the line $\frac{x+1}{2}=\frac{y-m}{3}=\frac{z-4}{6}$ lies in the plane $3 x-14 y+6 z+49=0$, then the value of $m$ is
- 3
- -5
- 5
- 2
Solution
Line $\frac{x+1}{2}=\frac{y-m}{3}=\frac{z-4}{6}$ lies in plane $3 x-14 y+6 z+49=0$
$\therefore$ Point $(-1, \mathrm{~m}, 4)$ lies in the plane.
$\begin{aligned}
& \therefore 3(-1)-14(\mathrm{~m})+6(4)+49=0 \Rightarrow-3-14 \mathrm{~m}+24+49=0 \\
& \therefore 14 \mathrm{~m}=70 \Rightarrow \mathrm{m}=5
\end{aligned}$
