Problem

Let P(3,2,6)P(3, 2, 6) be a point in space and QQ be a point on the line r=(i−j+2k)+μ(−3i+j+5k)\mathbf{r} = (\mathbf{i} - \mathbf{j} + 2\mathbf{k}) + \mu(-3\mathbf{i} + \mathbf{j} + 5\mathbf{k}) . Then the value of μ\mu for which the vector PQPQ is parallel to the plane x−4y+3z=1x - 4y + 3z = 1 is (1) 14\frac{1}{4} (2) −14-\frac{1}{4} (3) 18\frac{1}{8} (4) −18-\frac{1}{8}
