The base of a cone is something circular, like a circle or an ellipse.
The rest of the options (square, triangle, and pentagon) are all based of pyramids, not cones. Cones have to have a circular base because otherwise they'd be pyramids.
The reason fractions need a common denominator before adding or subtracting is so that the numbers of pieces you are adding/subtracting are all the same size. Note that the numerator of a fraction just tells you how many pieces you have of that size.
Answer:
-15
Step-by-step explanation:
start from the inside and go out.
So first plug in -3 into g(x)
g(-3) = -3 - 7 = -10
then plug in -10 into f(x)
f(-10) = 2(-10) + 5 = -15
so f(g(x)) = -15
