    option D is correct.

    y=9x represents a proportional situation

    Step-by-step explanation:

    If two quantities are said to have a proportional relationship if they vary in such a way that one of the quantities is a constant multiple of the other i. e,

    y = |k|x; where |k| is constant proportionality.

    By definition:

    y = 9x where k = 9 is constant, represents a proportional relationship.

    The correct answer option is y = 9x.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    From the given equations as the possible answer options, y = 9x is the correct answer which represents a proportional situation.

    Two values (variables in this case) are said to be proportional if they change in a way such that there is a constant multiple multiplied to one of the values.

    Here, in the equation y = 9x, y and x are the two variable and 9 is the constant multiple.
