System of equations

[Ainnes]

The LORAN satellite navigation systems broadcasts radio puilses simultaneously from 2 seperate locations. An on-board computer measures the difference in arrival time and computes the ship's position. A cargo ship is sailing in the Indian Ocean off the coast of Somalia. LORAN signals indicate the ship's position is at the intersection of xy=200 and x squared - 25x squared = 1600. Determine the position of the ship.

The LORAN satellite navigation systems broadcasts radio puilses simultaneously from 2 seperate locations. An on-board computer measures the difference in arrival time and computes the ship's position. A cargo ship is sailing in the Indian Ocean off the coast of Somalia. LORAN signals indicate the ship's position is at the intersection of xy=200 and x squared - 25x squared = 1600 (equation of this curve is incorrect - fix it). Determine the position of the ship.

You'll need to find the intersection points of those curves.
