This is only the last part, I think:

We have to find the point p where the perpendicular distance to the two planes is same.

first we will for an equation the way the paper gave.
therefore
for plane m
|x+2y-2z-1|/sqrt((1^2) + (2^2) + (-2^2) = |x+2y-2z-1|/3 [P.S, sqrt is square root]
for plane n
|2x-2y+z-7|/sqrt((2^2)+(-2^2)+(1^2) = |2x-2y+z-7|/3


since you are finding a point where both distance is same , therefore.
|x+2y-2z-1|/3 = |2x-2y+z-7|/3 (3 can be cancelled both sides)
=
|x+2y-2z-1| = |2x-2y+z-7|

now we will sub the line values in the equation.
the x component (1+2t) [P.S, t is lamda ]
the y comp. (1+t)
the z comp. (-1+2t)

therefore.
| (1+2t) +2 ( 1+t) -2(-1+2t) -1 | = |2(1+2t) - 2(1+t) + (-1+2t) - 7 |
simplifying it you get
|4| = |-8+4t|
now to solve modulus, we do squaring method
16 = 64-64t+16t^2
simplify
2 = 8 - 8t +2t^2
2t^2 - 8t + 6 = 0
solve it and get
t = 3 or t= 1
when t=3 the position of point is [P.S, u do this by sub t value in line equation)
(7, 4, 5) => OA
when t = 1 the position of point is
(3, 2, 1) => OB

BA (or AB, same thing) = OA - OB
= (4 , 2, 4)

now find the mod
sqrt(4^2 + 2^2 + 4^2)
= 6

I dint do every step in detail, (very long) if u dont get any step, just ask. [Pray for me please.]

Actually no hold on... the perpendicular bisector is at x=1, so we have to shade to the left of it... you shaded to the left of x=2
Now that is where I got wrong ! Thanks again! Yup, you said it correct! Now if I made it from 1, the answer will correct. (i think) Jazaki Allah khairan!

Help how to know wats coming of the exam
karim in math every question will include every part of the syllabus..nothing will be missed in math all the chapters in the book will be involved in the questions. like literally every chapter!!

One more thing, the perpendicular bisector and the line y= π/4 x should be dotted lines and not solid ones. The question says < not < and equal to.

7i) P(white box A) = 1/6
The clip taken from box A is placed in box B BEFORE a clip is taken from box B. So as the total number of clips in box B is 9 initially, it comes 10 later.
P( red clip from Box B) = 7/10
P (W,R) = 1/6 * 7/10 = 7/60

ii) Possible probabilities (W,R) (R,R)
The first combo was calculated in part i, for the second combo as a Red clip is taken from box A and placed in box B the number of red clips in Box B is now 8, and the total no of clip is now* [Edited] 10.
P (R,R) = 5/6 * 8/10 = 40/60
total probability =7/60 +40/60 = 47/60

iii) Find the conditional probability. P(R,R) = 40/60
probability that clip from box B red = 47/60
therefore P (R|R) = (40/60)/(47/60) = 40/47

iv) Since a clip is taken from each box, the probability of taking a red clip can be 0 , 1, or 2
for O P(W,W) = 1/6 * 3/10 = 3/60
For 1-
P (W,R) = 1/6 * 7/10 = 7/60
P (R, W) = 5/6* 2/10 = 10/60
Total = 17/60
For 2-
P(R,R) = 40/60
