$A$ perpendicular is drawn from a point $P$ on the line $\frac{x - 1}{2} = \frac{y + 1}{-1} = \frac{z}{1}$ to the plane $x + y + z = 3$ such that the foot of the perpendicular $Q$ also lies on the plane $x - y + z = 3$. Then the coordinates of $Q$ are

  • A
    $(2, 0, 1)$
  • B
    $(-1, 0, 4)$
  • C
