The correct answer is: r=j^+2k^+β2i^-3j^+k^

Note that the line is parallel to the plane, hence the image of the line will be a parallel line.

Now,  let the image of 2,3,4 in x+y+z=6 is x1,y1,z1

Then, x1-21=y1-31=z1-41=-22+3+4-61+1+1 

i.e. x1,y1,z10,1,2
So the required equation is r=j^+2k^+β2i^-3j^+k^
