Detailed Solution

(5x10)2+(5y+15)2=(3x4y+7)24⇒ (x2)2+(y+3)2=123x4y+752⇒ (x2)2+(y+3)2=123x4y+75
It is an ellipse, whose focus is (2, -3), directrix is 3x - 4y + 7 = 0, and eccentricity is 1/2.
Length of perpendicular from the focus to the directrix is
   |3×24(3)+7|5=5⇒     aeae=5    2aa2=5    a=103
So, the length of the major axis is 20/3.
