Jack's grandfather gave his parents a check to start a college savings account. They opened the account with the check and then deposited $175 per month since. After 5 years, there is $13,000 in the account.

Write an equation to model the account balance after x months.

• y = 175x + 13000

• y = 5x + 13000

• y = 175x + 2500

• y = 175x + 12125
