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.

Yes.

Linear has a slope direct does not but both go through the orgin
The slope of the graph of a direct variation is always positive.
Direct variation means that a linear function can be written as y = kx. The y-intercept must be (0, 0). The constant, k, is the slope.
the slope
find the constant of variation and the slope of the given line from the graph of y=2.5x
No.
An equation in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b) represents a direct variation only when the y-intercept (b) is zero, making it (y = mx). If (b) is non-zero, the equation does not represent a direct variation, which is defined as a linear relationship that passes through the origin. Therefore, it is "sometimes" true that an equation in slope-intercept form represents a direct variation, depending on the value of (b).
no. direct variation implies that you can simplify the problem into several forma which are equivalent to y/x = k in which k is called the constant of variation. one of these equivalent forms would by y = kx + 0 (slope intercept form) in which the y intercept must be 0 rearranging your equation gives a y- intecept of -14/35 which reduces to -2/5 since this is not zero. this is not direct variation.
No, direct proportion does not necessarily need to have a slope of 1. A direct proportionality relationship means that as one variable increases, the other variable increases at a constant rate, which can be represented by the equation (y = kx), where (k) is a constant. If (k = 1), the slope will be 1, but any positive value of (k) will still represent a direct proportion, just with a steeper or shallower slope.
