Answer

\[ 28=2 z+4 y+x \]

Work Step by Step

The equation of a plane passing through the point $(a, b, c)$ and having normal vector $\langle l, m, n\rangle$ is \[ 0=(-a+x)l+(-b+y)m+(-c+z)n \] The equation of the plane is \[ \begin{array}{c} 0=(-2+x) \cdot1+(-6+y) \cdot4+(-1+z) \cdot2 \\ 0=-2+x-24+4 y-2 +2 z\\ 28=x+4 y+2 z \end{array} \]
