The correct answer is: -2, 0, -12

Angle bisectors of the two given planes are

x-2y-2z+11+4+4=±2x-3y-6z+14+9+36

x-5y+4z+4=0 and 13x-23y-32z+10=0

 Let θ be the angle between the planes x-5y+4z+4=0 and x-2y-2z+1=0

So, cosθ=1+10-81+4+4·1+25+16=142tanθ=41>1

θ>45°

Then acute angle bisector is plane P: 13x-23y-32z+10=0

Point -2, 0, -12 lies on the the plane P
