Find the solution of the pair of equations $\frac{x}{10} + \frac{y}{5} - 1 = 0$ and $\frac{x}{8} + \frac{y}{6} = 15$. Hence,find $\lambda$ if $y = \lambda x + 5$.

  • A
    $x = -340, y = -165, \lambda = -\frac{1}{2}$
  • B
    $x = 340, y = -165, \lambda = -\frac{1}{2}$
  • C
    $x = 340, y = 165, \lambda = -\frac{1}{2}$
  • D
    $x = 340, y = -165, \lambda = \frac{1}{2}$
