Let $\alpha$ and $\beta$ be the roots of the equation $x^{2}+2ax+(3a+10) = 0$ such that $\alpha < 1 < \beta$. Then the set of all possible values of $a$ is:

  • A
    $(-\infty, -11/5) \cup (5, \infty)$
  • B
    $(-\infty, -2) \cup (5, \infty)$
  • C
    $(-\infty, -3)$
  • D
    $(-\infty, -11/5)$
