Answer:

a = 64

Step-by-step explanation:

The geometric mean of 2 numbers a and b is \sqrt{ab} , then

\sqrt{28a} = 16\sqrt{7} ( square both sides )

28a = (16\sqrt{7} )² = 1792 ( divide both sides by 28 )

a = 64

Answer:

a = 64

Step-by-step explanation:

The geometric mean for two numbers is given by :

GM = sqrt(ab)

16 sqrt(7) = sqrt(a*28)

Square each side

(16 sqrt(7))^2 = (sqrt(a*28))^2

256*7 = 28a

1792 = 28a

Divide each side by 28

1792/28 = 28a/28

64 = a

Answer:

Q' (-2, 2)

P' (-2, 7)

R' (6, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

When reflecting over a diagnal line such as y = x or y = -x, a trick is to count the boxes at an angle to see how many spaces it is away from the line. Be sure to recipicate what you counted the first time, and when reflecting over y = -x, flip the x and y coordinates and if needed, change the signs.

12 yo<br> 5 yd<br> what is the length of the hypotenuse
Allushta [10]

I'm sure that the hypotenuse is 13 yards

Here's the formula used:

Length of Hypotenuse² = Length of side 1² + Length of side 2²

So here's how to solve this question:

12 squared + 5 squared = hypotenuse

(Then square the values)

144 + 25 = 169

Divide 169 by the square root to get the length of the hypotenuse: 13

Hope this helps!
