In a linear equation, the variables "k" and "m" typically represent constants.

- "k" often represents the slope of the line. It determines the steepness or direction of the line.
- "m" typically represents the y-intercept, which is the point where the line intersects the y-axis. It indicates the starting value of the function.

For example, in the equation y = kx + m, "k" represents the slope, and "m" represents the y-intercept.

To determine the better buy, we need to compare the price per pound of nuts for each option.

For the first option: $12.95 for 3 pounds of nuts
Price per pound = $12.95 / 3 = $4.32 per pound

For the second option: $21.45 for 5 pounds of nuts
Price per pound = $21.45 / 5 = $4.29 per pound

Comparing the prices per pound, we can see that the second option priced at $21.45 for 5 pounds of nuts is the better buy as it costs $4.29 per pound compared to $4.32 per pound for the first option.

In the context of a linear equation, the "y" variable is typically written as a function of "x". Therefore, "y" is normally expressed as "y = f(x)" or "y = mx + b" (where "m" and "b" represent constants).

This way of writing the equation indicates that "y" is dependent on the value of "x" and represents the vertical axis on a Cartesian plane. In this case, "y" is considered to be "over" or "dependent on" the "x".

Yes, when estimating 125 divided by 38 to a whole number, we can round it to the nearest whole number. In this case, the result would be 3.
