1 Answer

Solution :-

Given:

The equation of plane is 2x – y + z = 5

Divide the given equation by 5, we get

\( \dfrac{x}{ \dfrac{5}{2}}+ \dfrac{y}{-5}+ \dfrac{z}{5}=1\)

Now, compare equation 1 and 2, we get

a = \( \dfrac{5}{2}\), b = -5, c = 5

Therefore intercepts on the coordinate axes are \( \dfrac{5}{2}\), -5, 5.
