Let \"+a+\" = hrs/client for plan A
\n" ); document.write( "Let \"+b+\" = hrs/client for plan B
\n" ); document.write( "Add up total hrs for Monday
\n" ); document.write( "(1) \"+5a+%2B+3b+=+9+\"
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Add up total hrs for Tuesday
\n" ); document.write( "(2) \"+2a+%2B+12b+=+9+\"
\n" ); document.write( "----------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply both sides of (1) by \"+4+\" and
\n" ); document.write( "subtract (2) from (1)
\n" ); document.write( "(1) \"+20a+%2B+12b+=+36+\"
\n" ); document.write( "(2) \"+-2a+-+12b+=+-9+\"
\n" ); document.write( "------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "\"+18a+=+27+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+a+=+3%2F2+\"

\n" ); document.write( "(1) \"+3b+=+3%2F2+\"
\n" ); document.write( "(1) \"+b+=+1%2F2+\"
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Plan A lasts 1.5 hrs
\n" ); document.write( "Plan B lasts .5 hrs
