Question

Let $A(\alpha, 0)$ and $B(0, \beta)$ be the points on the line $5 x+7 y=50$. Let the point $P$ divide the line segment $A B$ internally in the ratio $7:3$. Let $3 x-25=0$ be a directrix of the ellipse $E: \frac{x^2}{a^2}+\frac{y^2}{b^2}=1$ and the corresponding focus be $S$. If from $S$, the perpendicular on the $x$-axis passes through $P$, then the length of the latus rectum of $E$ is equal to,

$\frac{25}{3}$
$\frac{25}{9}$
$\frac{32}{5}$
$\frac{32}{9}$
