slightly puzzled by your notation.
Looks like you are using [....] to represent vector directions, but in
[x, y, z] = (4, 1, 8) + [1, -1, 1) , there is confusion and [1,-1,1] lacks a parameter.
So assuming the two lines have direction [1,-1,1] and [-6,2,5]
We need a normal to both of those, which is the cross-product
one such normal is [7,11,4] , (I assume you know how find that normal)
So the equation of the plane is 7x + 11y + 4z = k
with (9,1,-2) on it, so ....
63 + 11 - 8 = k = 66
7x + 11y + 4z = 66
Write a vector an parametric equation for the plane which contains the point P(9, 1, -2) and is parallel to [x, y, z] = (4, 1, 8) + [1, -1, 1) and [x, y, z] = (-5, 0, 10) + t(-6, 2, 5).

If you want a parametric equation for the plane, it is very simply:
[x,y,z] = (9, 1, -2) + s[1, -1, 1] + t[-6, 2, 5]
[x,y,z] = (9, 1, -2) + s[1, -1, 1] + t[-6, 2, 5]
Isn't [x,y,z] = (9, 1, -2) + s[1, -1, 1] + t[-6, 2, 5] the vector equation not the parametric equation?
Surely you are not going to tell me that you don't know how to change the vector equation to parametric form.
here is the x,
x = 9 + s - 6t
how about:
y = ...
z = ...
here is the x,
x = 9 + s - 6t
