Answer/Step-by-step explanation:
#8. Using the geometric mean theorem formula, h = √xy, where,
h = x
x = 4 and y = 16
Plug in the values
x = √(4*16)
x = 8
#9. Using the geometric mean formula, h = √xy, where,
h = y
x = 5 and y = 8
Plug in the values into the formula:
y = √(5*8)
y = √40
y = 6.3 (nearest tenth)
#10. Using the geometric mean formula, h = √xy, where,
h = 18
x = 12 and y = y = ???
Plug in the values into the formula:
18 = √(12*y)
Square both sides
18² = 12y
324 = 12y
Divide both sides by 12
27 = y
y = 27
