Find the equation of the plane that is perpendicular to the two planes 2x - y + 5z + 3 = 0 and x + 3y - z - 7 = 0 and passes through the origin. Hint: The normal vector for this plane must be perpendicular to the normal vectors of BOTH planes. What vector is that?

Find the equation of the plane that passes through the point P:(0,1,1) and is perpendicular to the planes 2x-3y=-5 and 3x-y-4z=-6. Give your answer in the form ax+by+cz=k where a≥0 and there is no common factor between a, b, c, and k. Hint: Find a vector that is perpendicular to both of the normal vectors of the two planes.
