are

View answer and explanation

Correct option: A

\left(\frac{5}{3}, \frac{7}{3}, \frac{17}{3}\right)

Option A (

\left(\frac{5}{3}, \frac{7}{3}, \frac{17}{3}\right)

) is correct because it represents the coordinates of the foot of the perpendicular calculated using section formula and dot product.
