Solution

The vector equation of the line passing through A(`bar(a))` and parallel to the vector `bar"b"` is `bar"r" = bar"a"  + lambdabar"b"`, where `lambda` is a scalar.
∴ the vector equation of the line passing through the point having position vector

`3hat"i" + 4hat"j" - 7hat"k"` and parallel to the vector `6hat"i" - hat"j" + hat"k"` is

`bar"r" = (3hat"i" + 4hat"j"  -7hat"k") + lambda(6hat"i" - hat"j" + hat"k")`.
