Substitute the line's general point (in terms of tt) into the plane's Cartesian equation, solve the resulting linear equation, and substitute back.

Step 1. General point on the line. r⃗=(6i^−j^−3k^)+t(−i^+4k^)\vec r=(6\hat i-\hat j-3\hat k)+t(-\hat i+4\hat k) gives point (6−t, −1, −3+4t)(6-t,\ -1,\ -3+4t).

Step 2. Substitute into the plane x+y−z=3x+y-z=3. …
