Let $\vec{p} = 2\hat{i} + 3\hat{j} + a\hat{k}$,$\vec{q} = b\hat{i} + 5\hat{j} - \hat{k}$,and $\vec{r} = \hat{i} + \hat{j} + 3\hat{k}$. If $\vec{p}, \vec{q}, \vec{r}$ are coplanar and $\vec{p} \cdot \vec{q} = 20$,then the ordered pair $(a, b)$ is:

  • A
    $(1, 3)$ or $(13, 9)$
  • B
    $(9, 7)$
  • C
    $(5, 5)$ or $(7, 3)$
  • D
    $(7, 3)$
