You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Mariana's savings can be represented by \"MarianaSaving+=+50+%2B+3w\"
\n" ); document.write( "Luis's savings can be represetned by \"LuisSavings+=+5.5w\"
\n" ); document.write( "You are asked to find when Luis has more saved that Mariana\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"LuisSavings+%3E+MarianaSavings\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"5.5w+%3E+50+%2B+3w\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"2.5w+%3E+50\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"w+%3E+50%2F2.5\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"w+%3E+20\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So at 20 weeks they have the same amount. After 20 weeks, Luis has more.
\n" ); document.write( "Note this assumes neither get any interest on their accounts.
\n" ); document.write( "
