Nov 1, 2011 at 20:39 comment added Joe Silverman I'm not sure what qualifies as a "homework level problem", but it seems to me that both this one and the previous one that you posted (about intersection of a quartic and a conic) fall into that category. If I assigned them in a grad class, I'd certainly expect everyone to be able to solve them. Did you actually spend several hours working on these problems and make no progress? I'm happy with Felipe's answer of a bald "Yes", but really, people, if a problem is this simple, suggest the poster work on it some more instead of answering. Or at most, give a hint.
