Answer:

  10 ft, 14 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let b represent the length of the shorter base. Then the longer one is b+4 and the area is ...

  A = (1/2)(b1 +b2)h

  120 = (1/2)(b +(b+4))(10) . . . . use given values

  12 = b+2 . . . . . . divide by 10, simplify

  10 = b

  14 = b+4

The measurements of the two bases are 10 ft and 14 ft.

Ok so we know it took 4 hrs and 15 minutes, which is the same as 4.25 hrs so we divide 1114 by 4.25 which is 262.118. The average speed of the plane is 262 mph.

Then we just have to multiply 262 by 1.6 to get the speed in kph. That equals 419.2. That means the average speed was 419 kph. Hope that helps!
