Adam saves his $30 in a savings account. Each week, he plans to save $8 more.

Let x = number of weeks since opening the account.

The initial funds for the account are $30.

After x weeks, we will have added 8x more.

Thus, the total funds after x weeks will be:

f(x) = 8x + 30

By the 5th week, he will have:

f(5) = 8 x 5 + 30 = 40 + 30 = 70

Adam will have $70
