Answer

$2x+y+3z=3$

Work Step by Step

The general form of the equation of the plane passing through the point $(a,b,c)$ and having normal vector $\lt l,m,n\gt$is: $l(x-a)+m(y-b)+n(z-c)=0$ Thus, the equation of plane is: $2(x-3)+1(y-0)+3(z+1)=0$ After simplification, we get $2x+y+3z-3=0$ Or, $2x+y+3z=3$
