Answer:
c
Step-by-step explanation:
The geometric mean of two numbers is the square root of their product:
So, if the product is 8, the geometric mean is 
Answer: Choice C) 10.5
The distance from A to C is 7 units (count out the spaces between the two points, or subtract y coordinates 4-(-3) = 4+3 = 7)
Let AC = 7 be the base of the triangle. You might want to rotate the image so that AC is laying horizontally rather than being vertical.
Now move to point P. Walk 3 spaces to the right until you land on segment AC. This shows that the height of the triangle is 3 when the base is AC = 7.
base = 7, height = 3
area of triangle = (1/2)*base*height
area of triangle = 0.5*7*3
area of triangle = 10.5 square units
f(g(-1)) = - 3
Evaluate g(-1) and substitute into f(x)
g(-1) = (-1)² -7(-1) - 9 = 1 + 7 - 9 = - 1
f(g(-1)) = (-1) - 2 = - 3
