Let a line $l$ pass through the origin and be perpendicular to the lines $l_1: \overrightarrow{r} = (\hat{i} - 11\hat{j} - 7\hat{k}) + \lambda(\hat{i} + 2\hat{j} + 3\hat{k})$ and $l_2: \overrightarrow{r} = (-\hat{i} + \hat{k}) + \mu(2\hat{i} + 2\hat{j} + \hat{k})$. If $P$ is the point of intersection of $l$ and $l_1$,and $Q(\alpha, \beta, \gamma)$ is the foot of the perpendicular from $P$ on $l_2$,then $9(\alpha + \beta + \gamma)$ is equal to:

  • A
    $4$
  • B
    $5$
  • C
    $3$
  • D
    $2$
