Apologies for the error. Let's calculate the value of k using the given ordered pairs:

When x = -9, y = -18
-18 = k*(-9)

k = -18 / -9
k = 2

Therefore, the correct direct variation equation is:

y = 2x

I apologize for the error in my previous responses. Let's recalculate the correct value of k using the given ordered pairs:

When x = 1, y = 2
2 = k * 1
k = 2

Therefore, the correct direct variation equation is:

y = 2x

I apologize for the mistakes in my previous responses. Let's reevaluate the correct value of k using the given ordered pairs.

When x = 7, y = 14
14 = k * 7
k = 14 / 7
k = 2

Therefore, the correct direct variation equation is:

y = 2x
INCORECT YOU ARE WRONG
Let's reevaluate the calculation for the correct value of k using the given ordered pairs.

Given ordered pairs: (-9, -18), (1, 2), (7, 14), (8, 16)

Let's use the first two ordered pairs to find the value of k:

1. When x = -9, y = -18:
-18 = k * (-9)
k = -18 / -9
k = 2

Therefore, the correct direct variation equation is:

y = 2x

This equation satisfies all the given ordered pairs in the table.
