To find the vector equation of a line passing through the point \( (2, -1, 1) \) and parallel to the line given by the equations \( \frac{x-3}{2} = \frac{y+1}{7} = \frac{z-2}{-3} \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the Direction Ratios The direction ratios of the given line can be extracted from the equation. The equation \( \frac{x-3}{2} = \frac{y+1}{7} = \frac{z-2}{-3} \) indicates that the direction ratios are \( 2, 7, -3 \). **Hint:** Look for the coefficients in the parametric form of the line equation to identify the direction ratios. ### Step 2: Write the Point and Direction Ratios ...
