Detailed Solution

The vector eq of the line passing through the points  2a¯+3b¯c¯,3a¯+4b¯2c is r¯=(1t)(2a¯+3b¯c¯)+t(3a¯+4b¯2c¯) 

r¯=a¯(22t+3t)+b¯(33t+4t)+c¯(1+t2t)

=a¯(2+t)+b¯(3+t)+c¯(1t).....(1)

The vector equation of the plane passing through the points  a¯2b¯+3c¯,a¯6b¯+6c¯ is 

r¯=(1s)(a¯2b¯+3c¯)+s(a¯6b¯+6c¯)

r=a¯(1s+s)+b¯(2+2s6s)+c¯(33s+6s)

=a¯+b¯(4s2)+c¯(3s+3)....(2)

(1)=(2)

2+t =1; -4s-2=3+t

t =-1  3s+3=1t4s2=314s=4

s=1 from (2) point of intersection is 

r¯=a¯+b¯(42)+c¯(3+3)

r¯=a¯+2b¯
