You can put this solution on YOUR website!
First, let's observe the point (or week) when their amount equal.
\n" ); document.write( "Let's call that week 'x'
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Sean => $20 + $2x
\n" ); document.write( "Max = $5x
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "When Sean's = Max's
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "$20 + $2x = $5x
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "$5x - $2x = $20
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "$3x = $20
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "x = 20/3 = 6.6667
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Their amount equalled at week 6.6667. So by 7th week Max's savings should be greater.
