Solution

An algebraic expression is an expression that has variables and constants and is connected by symbols of arithmetic operation.
The situation is,
Ramya is $z y e a r s$ old and Seema is $6 t i m e s$ Ramya's age increased by $6 y e a r s$ .
Six times Ramya's age $= 6 z$
Six times Ramya's age increased by six $= 6 x + 6$
So, Seema's age $= 6 x + 6$
Therefore the algebraic expression for Seema's age $= 6 x + 6$
