What is the form of the direct variation equation?

• y = k + x

• y = kx

• y = k - x

• y = x/k

How can the direct variation constant k be rewritten?

• k = y - x

• k = y / x

• k = y * x

• k = x / y

What is the ratio of y to x when y equals 4 and x equals negative 2?

• -2:4

• 2:4

• 4:-2

• 4:2
