Question

How do you write an equation for a direct variation with a graph that passes through (6,2)?

Answer 1

The equation for a direct variation function line is always of the form
`y = m*x` for some constant `m`

We are told that `(x,y) = (6,2)` is on the desired direct variation line, so
`2 = m*6`

`m= 1/3`

The direct variation function is
`y = 1/3 x`
