Which of the following equations represents a direct variation?

• y = 2x - 1

• y = 3x + 2

• y = x^2

• y = 5x

How can you test if a table represents a direct variation?

• Check if the sum of x and y is constant

• Check if y values are all positive

• Check if x values are all positive

• Check if the ratio y/x is constant

If a table has the pairs (4, 1) and (6, 2), does it represent a direct variation?

• Yes, because the sum of x and y is constant

• Yes, because the ratio y/x is constant

• No, because the sum of x and y is not constant

• No, because the ratio y/x is not constant

Given the table with pairs (0.5, 1), (1, 2), (1.5, 3), and (2, 4), what is the constant of variation (k)?

• 1.5

• 1

• 0.5

• 2
