Hans the trainer has two solo workout plans that he offers his clients: plan a and plan b. each client does either one or the other (not both). on monday there were 6 clients who did plan a and 5 who did plan b. on tuesday there were 2 clients who did plan a and 3 who did plan b. hans trained his monday clients for a total of 7 hours and his tuesday clients for a total of 3 hours. how long does each of the workout plans last?

A = hours for plan A
B = hours for plan B

Monday: 6A + 5B = 7
Tuesday: 2A + 3B = 3

use elimination by multiplying the 2nd equation by 3.

Doing that we get 3(2A + 3B = 3) = 6A + 9B = 9

So the two equations are now:
6A + 9B = 9

6A + 5B = 7

Subtract and we have 4B = 2

B = 2/4 = 1/2 of an hour

Now put 1/2 back into either equation to solve for A

6A + 5(1/2) = 7
6A + 5/2 = 7
6A = 14/2 -5/2
6A = 9/2
divide by 6 to get A = 9/12 = ¾  hours

Plan A = 3/4 hour

 Plan B = 1/2 hour

answer: on graphs, the open and closed circles, or vertical asymptotes drawn as dashed lines us identify discontinuities.

as before, graphs and tables allow us to estimate at best.

when working with formulas, getting zero in the denominator indicates a point of discontinuity.

when working with piecewise-defined functions, check for discontinuities at the transition points where one piece ends and the next begins.
