A direct variation has a constant slope, i.e. (y/x)= constant.
Both of the given two points give a slope of (y/x)=14/2=28/4=7, so the equation of the function is
y/x=7, or simply
y=7x
The answer is C or the third answer choice because the absolute value of nine is equivalent to the absolute value of nine. The meaning of absolute value is the number of places away from zero on the number line, and both 9 and -9 are equal distance from zero.
