Watch the next few videos to get a better feel of direct variation and how it applies to real world situations. If you're feeling extremely confident about it, move on. If not, just watch. They're not very long.

We can tell if a table represents direct variation if the slope is the same between all the points. You can also tell by choosing two points and making them proportional to each other. If they reduce to the same number, they represent direct variation! Try the following to test your skills!
