Alayna Lin · Answer 1

A = 2w+5

example: on week three, she would have the recipes from the other weeks that you have to account for as well as the extra five

2 (3) + 5=11 so A would equal 11 by week three.

Use multiplication because it is essentially repeated addition.

2 (from week 1) + 2 (from week 2) + 2 (from week 3) + 5 (prior to school) = 11
