The value of $m$, such that $\frac{x-4}{1}=\frac{y-2}{1}=\frac{2 z-m}{3}$ lies in the plane $2 x-5 y+2 z=7$, is
  1. 8
  2. 10
  3. 9
  4. 7

Solution

According to the given condition, point $\left(4,2, \frac{\mathrm{~m}}{2}\right)$ lies on the plane $2 x-5 y+2 z=7$. $\begin{aligned} & \Rightarrow 2(4)-5(2)+2\left(\frac{\mathrm{~m}}{2}\right)=7 \\ & \Rightarrow \mathrm{~m}=9 \end{aligned}$
