Are you given any other numbers in this problem? Like the amount this account is overdrawn?
If I'm overdrawn by 50 dollars, then I have to deposit $50 to bring my balance up to zero. If I want the balance to be $75, I have to deposit $75 more dollars. The total deposit would be $50 + $75, or $125.
In Algebraic terms we need to assign a Variable (letter) to the unknown. The way you have this question posted, we don't know the amount overdrawn, so that's the unknown. Let's just call this A for "amount". Let's use D for "deposit".
then we can write this:
D = A + 75
Deposit = Amount overdrawn + $75
