Explanation:
#"given "ypropx#
#"then "y=kxlarrcolor(blue)"equation for direct variation"#
#"where k is the constant of variation"#
#"to find k use the given coordinate point "(2,10)#
#y=kxrArrk=y/x=10/2=5#
#"equation is " color(red)(bar(ul(|color(white)(2/2)color(black)(y=5x)color(white)(2/2)|)))#
#y=5x" has the form "y=mxlarrcolor(blue)"m is the slope"#
#rArry=5x" is a straight line passing through the origin"#
#"with slope m = 5"#
