line  ((x−2)/(−1)) = ((y−3)/2) = ((z−4)/3)=λ  ⇒x=−λ+2  ⇒y=2λ+3  ⇒z=3λ+4  using λ=1 we get a point P on the  line P(1,5,7).  say the image of point P in the  plane is P′(u,v,w)  (x,y,z)=(1,5,7)+k(2,3,−4)  2(1+2k)+3(5+3k)−4(7−4k)+3=0  ⇒k=(8/3)  (u,v,w)=(1,5,7)+((16)/3)(2,3,−4)=(((35)/3),21,((−43)/3))    intersection point Q of line and plane:  2(−λ+2)+3(2λ+3)−4(3λ+4)+3=0  ⇒λ=0  ⇒Q(2,3,4)  the image of line in plane is the  line P′Q:  ((x−2)/(((35)/3)−2))=((y−3)/(21−3))=((z−4)/(−((43)/3)−4))  ⇒((x−2)/((29)/3))=((y−3)/(18))=((z−4)/(−((55)/3)))
