Answer:

y = x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the information provided we can create the following equation. Since every seed packet can grow 1 single flower we would need to multiply 1 by the number of seed packets (x), which simplified would be just x . Next we are told that Steve already has 5 flowers in his possession meaning we need to add this to the new flowers that he is growing to get the total number of flowers.

y = x + 5
