See explanation.
Explanation:
The original system is:
#{ (x^2+y^2=25),(y^2+9x^2=25) :}#
From any of the equations you can easily calculate
#{ (y^2=25-x^2),(25-x^2+9x^2=25) :}#
Now the second equation has only one variable, so we can solve it:
Finally we can substitute calculated value of
Answer: The system has 2 solutions:
