Answer:


105+25n

where
n is the number of weeks

Explanation:

Initial money available with Tom = $105

Allowance given to Tom every week = $25

To find:

Equation for money available with Tom given a number of weeks.

Money available with Tom after first week = $105+ $25 = $130

Money available with Tom after second week = $130+ $25 = $155 OR 105+ 2
* 25

Money available with Tom after third week = $155 + $25 = $180 OR 105+ 3
* 25

and so on.

Money available with Tom after
n weeks = $105 + $25
* n

Therefore, the equation is:


105+25n
