Let a line $L$ pass through the point of intersection of the lines $bx + 10y - 8 = 0$ and $2x - 3y = 0$,where $b \in R - \{\frac{4}{3}\}$. If the line $L$ also passes through the point $(1, 1)$ and touches the circle $17(x^2 + y^2) = 16$,then the eccentricity of the ellipse $\frac{x^2}{5} + \frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1$ is:

  • A
    $\frac{2}{\sqrt{5}}$
  • B
    $\sqrt{\frac{3}{5}}$
  • C
    $\frac{1}{\sqrt{5}}$
  • D
    $\sqrt{\frac{2}{5}}$
