Answer:

Only 1 plane containing line L can be drawn parallel to plane P.

Explanation:

Line L is an axis of an infinite number of planes that can contain it. Line L is a straight line suspended over or below plane P.

All the planes that can contain line L would be almost infinte. Spinning around this axis of line L, the planes that can contain line L will be always be at an angle to plane P except for one position. In this position the plane containing Line L would face straight up to the plane P, hence, this is the only parallel case.

Hope this Helps!!!
