Answer:

  $85

Step-by-step explanation:

Let y represent Timmy's money after x weeks. If we assume that the only money Timmy has is what is mentioned in the problem statement, then ...

  y = 50 +5x . . . . . $50 initially plus $5 for each week

After 7 weeks, x = 7, so Timmy's fortune will be ...

  y = 50 +5(7) = 50 +35

  y = 85

Timmy will have $85 in 7 weeks.
