Question

At the end of the summer, Caitlin had saved $120 from her summer job. This was her initial deposit into a new saving account at the bank. As the school year starts, Caitlin is going to deposit another $5 each week from her allowance. What is the value of the account balance ($) when the time (in weeks) is 0?
