**Question:** What's the solution set to the following system of equations?
**Equations:**
1. \( x^2 + y^2 = 9 \)
2. \( 9x^2 + 25y^2 = 225 \)
**Options:**
- **A.** \(\{(3, 0), (-3, 0)\}\)
- **B.** \(\{(0, 5), (0, -5)\}\)
- **C.** \(\{(5, 0), (-5, 0)\}\)
- **D.** \(\{(0, 3), (0, -3)\}\)
**Explanation:**
The first equation, \( x^2 + y^2 = 9 \), represents a circle centered at the origin with a radius of 3.
The second equation, \( 9x^2 + 25y^2 = 225 \), can be rewritten as the ellipse \(\left(\frac{x^2}{25}\right) + \left(\frac{y^2}{9}\right) = 1\), which is an ellipse centered at the origin, with semi-major axis 5 and semi-minor axis 3.
To find the solution set, determine the points that satisfy both equations simultaneously.
