Number of solutions of linear congruence with bounded variables

Fix some nonzero integers $a_1, \dots, a_k$, with $k \geq 2$, and some real numbers $c_1, \dots, c_k \in (0,1)$. For every positive integer $m$, let $N(m)$ be the number of $k$-tuple of integers $(x_1,...

Is it true that $|\{k^{k+1}+(k+1)^k\pmod p:\ k=0,\ldots,p-1\}|=(1-e^{-1})p+O(\sqrt{p})\ ?$

For each prime $p$, let us define $$w_p:=|\{k^{k+1}+(k+1)^k\pmod p:\ k=0,\ldots,p-1\}|,$$ where $a\pmod p$ denotes the residue class $a+p\mathbb Z$. Based on my computation, I conjecture that $$w_p=...
