show or explain how you got your answer.
write an expression to represent the total number of seashells in sally’s
collection after w weeks.

The total number of seashells in Sally’s collection after 5 weeks is 225 and an expression to represent the total number of seashells in Sally’s  collection after w weeks is  

Step-by-step explanation:

Sally has seashells currently = 100

From today , she will collect 25 seashells each week.

Let w be the no. of weeks

So, she will collect seashells in w weeks = 25w

So, total seashells after w weeks = 100+25w

Let y denotes total seashells after w weeks

So,

Substitute w = 5

Hence the total number of seashells in Sally’s collection after 5 weeks is 225 and an expression to represent the total number of seashells in Sally’s  collection after w weeks is
