Nice one Heureka,

I didn't even realise that I was being presented with 2 equations to solve simultaneously!

I didn't understand WHAT the question was.  Perhaps you could present it a little better next time anonymous.

Heureka may not be around to interprete!

Anyway, that is a really nice solution Heureka.
