Answer:

y=5x+50

Explanation:

Y= how much money in your account.

you use the formula y=mx+b to show a steady slope.

B is the Y-intercept or where your data starts.

In this case it would be $50.

You then add or deposit 5 dollars each week.

X=# of weeks.

Y = 5x + 50

You have $50, and for x amount of weeks you deposit $5
