Question
Find the value of so $\lambda$ that the lines$\frac{1 - x}{3} = \frac{7y - 14}{2\lambda} = \frac{5z - 10}{11} \text{and} \frac{7 - 7x}{3\lambda} = \frac{y - 5}{1}= \frac{6 - z}{5}$
are perpendicular to each other.

Answer

Getting direction rations of two lines as$(a_{1}, b_{1}, c_{1},) = \bigg( -3, \frac{2\lambda}{7}, \frac{11}{5}\bigg) \text{and} (a_{2}, b_{2}, c_{2},) = \bigg(-\frac{3\lambda}{7},1, -5\bigg)$
Two lines are perpendicular then $a_{1}a_{2} + b_{1}b_{2} + c_{1}c_{2} = 0$
$\Rightarrow \frac{9\lambda}{7} + \frac{2\lambda}{7} - 11 = 0 \Rightarrow \frac{11\lambda}{7} = 11 \Rightarrow \lambda = 7$

A wholesale dealer deals in two kinds, $A$ and $B ($say$)$ of mixture of nuts. Each $\ kg$ of mixture $A$ contains $60$ grams of almonds, $30$ grams of cashew nuts and $30$ grams of hazel nuts. Each $\ kg$ of mixture $B$ contains $30$ grams of almonds, $60$ grams of cashew nuts and $180$ grams of hazel nuts. The remainder of both mixtures is per nuts. The dealer is contemplating to use mixtures $A$ and $B$ to make a bag which will contain at least $240$ grams of almonds, $300$ grams of cashew nuts and $540$ grams of hazel nuts. Mixture A costs $Rs. 8$ per $\ kg.$ and mixture $B$ costs $Rs. 12$ per $\ kg$. Assuming that mixtures $A$ and $B$ are uniform, use graphical method to determine the number of $\ kg.$ of each mixture which he should use to minimise the cost of the bag.
