Given:


a=49\text{ and b=7.}

a varies directly b.

Required:

We need to find the equation that relates a and b.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a varies directly as b. It can be written as follows.


a=\beta b
Substitute\text{ a =49 and b =7 in the equation to find the value of }\beta.


49=\beta(7)

Divide both sides by 7.


(49)/(7)=\beta(7)/(7)
\beta=7
Substitute\text{ }\beta=7\text{ in the equation.}
a=7b

Final answer:

The equation that relates a and b.


a=7b
