λ+k=24

Explanation:

Considering

y=elogy we have

y15=elogy5

x=y15+y152=elogy5+elogy52=cosh(logy5)

and then

logy5=arcosh(x) or

y=e5arcosh(x)

After substituting into the differential equation we have

(5(λ1)xx21+k+25)e5arcosh(x)=0

So the conditions for solution are

λ=1
k+25=0

and then

λ+k=24
