Answer:

4y+5 vegetable seeds.

Explanation:

In order to find the total amount of vegetable seeds, you need to add y+3y+5.

You have to combine your like terms.

3y and y are like terms, so you add them to get 4y. 5 and 4y are not like terms, so you just write your expression as 4y+5.

Hope this helps!
