To find the equation of the plane that cuts the coordinate axes at points A, B, and C, given that the centroid of triangle ABC is (2, -3, 4), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Set up the equation of the plane The general equation of a plane that intersects the coordinate axes at points A, B, and C can be written as: \[ \frac{x}{a} + \frac{y}{b} + \frac{z}{c} = 1 \] where \(a\), \(b\), and \(c\) are the x-intercept, y-intercept, and z-intercept of the plane, respectively. ...
