George's family is on a road trip. After driving for a while, they stopped for gas, and then traveled 5834 more miles before they decided to stop for lunch. After lunch, they tripled their distance traveled before stopping for the night. Their total distance traveled that day was 381 miles. How many miles had they traveled before their first stop for gas? Enter your answer as a simplified mixed number in the box.

Step-by-step explanation:

68 1/4

the direct variation says that:

then the equation is of the form is given by:

            where k is the constant variation.

from the given table:

consider any value of x and m(x)=y

x = 2 and m(x)=y = 3

substitute these value in [1]; we have;

divide both sides by 2 we get;

⇒

check:

put x = -1 and m(x) = -1.5

substitute in the equation:

-1.5 = -1.5                   true

therefore, the function m(x) represents a direct variation

graph of this function as shown below:

step-by-step explanation:

use pothagarean therom

a^2+b^2=c^2 so first ac

acm is a right triangle because c= 90°

and am (the hypotenuse or c) =16+9 =25

but there is not enough info we need another angle or side length
