For a direct variation equation the constant MUST be 0.
Then the ratio of a pair of values of the two variables is the slope.

yes y=kx is the formula for direct variation, and k represents constant of variation which can also be called slope.
k is the constant of variation and is the gradient (slope) of the relevant graph.
The slope of the graph of a direct variation is always positive.
