A seismological station located at A (0, 1) detected an earthquake with epicenter 3√5 units away. The station at B (9, 2), on the other hand, determined the epicenter to be 5 units aways. Determine the location of the epicenter if it is known that is below the x- axis. (Note: no need for the specific unit to solve this problem).
