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

(3−6n5−8n4)−(−6n4−3n−8n5) <br> Part 2 Solve this quadratic equation. 4x2−2x−5=0
xxMikexx [17]
Part 1:
 
We have the following expression:
 (3-6n5-8n4) - (- 6n4-3n-8n5)
 Rewriting we have:
 3-6n5-8n4 + 6n4 + 3n + 8n5
 Adding similar terms we have:
 2n5 - 2n4 + 3n + 3

 Part 2:
 We have the following equation:
 4x2-2x-5 = 0
 Using resolver we have to:
 x = (- b +/- root (b2 - 4ac)) / (2a)
 The solutions are:
 x1 = 1/4 - root (21) / 4
 
x2 = 1/4 + root (21) / 4
