Clara's office had already recycled 1 kilogram this year before starting the new recycling plan, and the new plan will have the office recycling 6 kilograms of paper each week. Write an equation that shows the relationship between the weeks w and the paper recycled p. Write your answer as an equation with p first, followed by an equals sign.

p = 6w + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The 6w represents that six kilograms are recycled for every week the variable w represents. For example if the w were 2 they would have recycled twelve kilograms of paper

The plus 1 was included because before they started to recycle six kilograms weekly they had already recycled one.

3 is greater then both of those numbers
