Answer:
7
Step-by-step explanation:
When the mean of two numbers is the same as one of the numbers, then the other number also has that same value. This is true for any kind of mean:
arithmetic, geometric, harmonic.
The other number would be 7.
__
The geometric mean (m) of a and b is ...
m = √(ab)
We have ...
7 = √(7b)
49 = 7b . . . . . square both sides
7 = b . . . . . . . .divide by 7
a = b = m = 7 in this case.
