See below.

Explanation:

I'm not sure if I am reading this question correctly.

Direct variation is represented as:

#y=kx#

Where #bbk# is the constant of variation.

We are given the point #(2,5)#, so:

#5=k2=>k=5/2#

This would be a function passing through the origin with gradient #5/2#

#y=5/2x#
