A. w divided by 35
b. 35w
c.w+35

Answer 1

To represent the rule that gives the total number of cans of food donated after \( w \) weeks, you can use the expression \( n = 35w \), where \( n \) is the number of cans donated and \( w \) is the number of weeks.

So the correct option is:

b. \( 35w \)
