Can you leave a hyphen hanging when there is more than one adjective?

Question

When you have 2 adjectives describing one object, do you use 2 hyphens? For example:

There are short- and long-form publications.

Answer 1

That's correct

General Principle 5

When two or more compound modifiers have a common base, this base is sometimes omitted in all except the last modifier, but the hyphens are retained.

Examples:

Long- and short-term memory

2-, 3-, and 10-min trials.
