Solution

The correct option is A (2,1,1)
a=^ı+2^ȷ+3ˆk
b=2^ı+3^ȷ+ˆk
c=3^ı+^ȷ+2ˆk
αa+βb+γc=3ˆi+3ˆk
α^i+2α^ȷ+3α^k+2β^i+3β^ȷ+β^k=3^ı+3^k+3γ^ı+γ^ȷ+2Υ^k
^ı(α+2β+3γ)+^ȷ(2α+3β+γ)=3^ı+3^k+^k(3α+β+2γ)
Comparing both sides
α+2β+3γ=3(1)
2α+3β+γ=0(2)
3α+β+2x=3(3)
α+2β=33γ(4)
multiply equation (4) by 2 and subtracted by (2)
2α+3β(2α+4β)=γ(66γ)
3β4β=γ+6+6γ
β=5γ+6β=5γ6(5)
put equation (5) in equation (4)
α+2(5γ6)=33γ
α10γ12=33γ
α=7γ+9(6)
put value of β and α from equations
(5) and (6) in equation (3)
3(7x+9)+(5y6)+2γ=3
21x+275γ6+2y=3
18γ=18x=1
β=5γ6=5(1)6=1
α=7x+9=7(1)+9=2
α=2;β=1;γ=1(α,β,γ)(2,1,1)
Answer: option (A)
