Answer:
x=2
a=19
Step-by-step explanation:
2x+3=7
2x+3-3=7-3
2x=4
2x/2=4/2
x=2
418=-22a
418/(-22)=-22a/(-22)
19=a
The simplified expression that is equivalent to the total distance, in miles, Joy covers is (A) x² + 3x + 5 miles.

What is an expression?</h3>
- An expression or mathematical expression is a finite combination of symbols that is well-formed according to context-dependent norms.
To find the simplified expression:
Given -
- Distance cycled = x² + 7 miles
- Distance ran = 2x miles
- Distance swam = x - 2 miles
Thus,
- Total distance she covers = x² + 7 + 2x + x - 2
- Total distance = x² + 3x + 5 miles
Therefore, the simplified expression that is equivalent to the total distance, in miles, Joy covers is (A) x² + 3x + 5 miles.

The complete question is given below:
Joy is training for a triathlon. She runs a distance of 2x miles, cycles a distance of (x2 + 7) miles, and swims a distance of (x - 2) miles. Which simplified expression is equivalent to the total distance, in miles, Joy covers?
(A) x2 + 3x + 5
(B) x2 + 3x + 9
(C) 3x2 + 5
(D) 3x2 + 9
-5 and 21
21 - 5 = 16
21 × (-5) = -105
