Edit: sorry I accidentally placed it in the Spanish class, this is for Mathematics, please answer the question if you know.

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

Given the question above, we have the following mathematical expression:

Let x equal to the shortest base and y equal to the longer base

Hence, we have

y = 2x + 3

Therefore, in this case, the correct answer is that the sum of the bases = x + 2x +3 = 3x +3
