\begin{aligned} &\mathrm{D}_{1}=\left|\begin{array}{ccc} -7 & 4 & -1 \\ 8 & 1 & 5 \\ 15 & \mathrm{~b} & 6 \end{array}\right|=0 \Rightarrow \mathrm{b}=-3\\ &\mathrm{D}=\left|\begin{array}{ccc} 1 & 4 & -1 \\ 3 & 1 & 5 \\ \mathrm{a} & \mathrm{b} & 6 \end{array}\right|=0 \Rightarrow 21 \mathrm{a}-8 \mathrm{~b}-66=0\\ &P: 2 x-3 y+6 z=15\\ &\text { so required distance }=\frac{21}{7}=3 \end{aligned}
