Equation of plane

4axy+5z7a+λ(2x5yz3)=0

this satisfy (4, -1, 0)

16a+17a+λ(8+53)=09a+1+10λ=0         ....(1)

Normal vector of the plane A is (4a+2λ, 15λ, 5λ) vector along the line which contained the plane A is

i2j+k4a+2λ+2+10λ+5λ=011λ+4a+7=0    (2)

Solve (1) and (2) to get a = 1, λ = -1

Now equation of plane

x+2y+3z2=0

Let the point in the line x37=y21=z34=t is (7t+3,t+2,4t+3) satisfy the equation of plane A

7t+32t+4+912t2=0 t=2 So α+β+γ=2t+8=12
