The correct answer is: 11

Given,

αβγ2108938848=000

2α+9β+8γ10α+3β+4γ8α+8β+8γ=000

Now on comparing both side we get,

2α+2β+8γ=0        1

10α+3β+4γ=0         2

8α+8β+8γ=0         3

Now from 1 and 3 by cross multiplication we get,

α1=β6=γ-7=kα=k, β=6k, γ=-7k

Point Pα,β,γ lie on the plane 2x+4y+3z=52α+4β+3γ=5

2k+24k-21k=5

k=1

Hence, 6α+9β+7γ=6k+54k-49k=11k=11.
