Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

Let the shorter base = x

Let the longer base = 3x

h = 5

Area = 60

Formula

Area = (b1 + b2)*h /2

Solution

60 = (x + 3x)*5 / 2                Multiply both sides by 2

2*60 = (x + 3x)*5                  Combine like terms

120 = 4x *5

120 = 20x                             Divide by 20

120/20 = x

x = 6

Therefore the two bases are

x = 6

3x = 18

If fx = 2x^2 + 3 and g(x) = x^2 - 7 find (f - g) (x)
Semmy [17]

(f-g) (x) means to subtract g(x) from f(x)

F(x) = 2x^2 +3

g(x) = x^2

This becomes:

2x^2 + 3 - x^2 = x^2 +3
