Answer:

x^2+3x+5 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Joy is training for a triathlon. She runs a distance of 2x  miles, cycles a distance of (x^2+7) miles, and swims a distance of (x-2) miles. We are asked to find total distance covered by Joy.

\text{Total distance}=\text{Distance covered by running}+\text{Distance covered by cycling}+\text{Distance covered by swimming}

\text{Total distance}=(2x)+(x^2+7)+(x-2)

\text{Total distance}=2x+x^2+7+x-2

\text{Total distance}=x^2+2x+x+7-2

\text{Total distance}=x^2+3x+5

Therefore, Joy covered a total distance of x^2+3x+5 miles.

Ok, so 1 is a whole number.  1/5 is a fraction of 1.  So you want to subtract 1/5 from 1.  The number 1 is equal to 5/5.  So if you subtract 1/5 from 5/5 you are left with 4/5.  You do the same with the second one, just subtract 3/5 from 5/5 to get your answer.
