Let k be a positive real number. The area of the bounded region between the line $\mathrm { y } = \mathrm { kx }$ and the parabola $y = x ^ { 2 }$ is $\frac { 9 } { 16 }$ square units.
Accordingly, what is the value of $\mathbf { k }$?\\
A) $\frac { 3 } { 2 }$\\
B) $\frac { 4 } { 3 }$\\
C) $\frac { 7 } { 4 }$\\
D) $\frac { 7 } { 6 }$\\
E) $\frac { 8 } { 5 }$
