What is the geometric mean between 1 and 16?

-4 is also a geometric mean

if we consider a(first element in series)=1 and r(common ratio)=-4 then the series would be

1,-4,16,-64,256,…..,a(-4)^(n-1 )

where n is nth term

from this -4 would be the geometric mean if we consider -4 as common ratio .

If we consider 4 as common ratio then geometric mean should be 4

so you should mention whether common ratio >0 or not (r>0 or not) .

[without ‘r’ value you can’t solve the question but in general most of the teachers will consider r>0.]

So, -4 won’t be geometric mean of 1 & 16

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

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

geometric mean of 1 and 16 is

\sqrt{1(16)} = \sqrt{16} = 4

Calculate JK if LJ=45, JM=60 and LM=75
aliina [53]

Answer:

JK = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle Bisector Theorem: an angle bisector of a triangle divide the opposite side into two segments that are proportional to the other two sides of the triangle

LK / JK = LM / JM

(45 - JK) / JK = 75 / 60 = 5 / 4

5 JK = 4 (45 - JK)

5 JK = 180 - 4 JK

9 JK = 180

JK = 20

Please help my mom is gonna hit me if i don't get it right. <br> the answer is NOT 18
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

Lol I hope she didn't hit you yet. The answer is x=14 :)

Step-by-step explanation:

So the first thing that you would want to do is find what 9 is multiplied by to get 21. To do this, we can just do a simple algebraic equation: 9x=21. The answer is 7/3 because mAgIc. So now, we can also multiply 6 by 7/3. this would be 42/3 because of more MaGiC. 42/3 divides into 14 because im  just obviously a mage. lol I hope this helped.

HELP ASAP!!!!! If the big triangle below has an area of 20 m squared what does x equal
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

20 = (x + 1) \times 10 \times 0.5 \\  = 5 \times (x + 1)  \\  x + 1 = 20 \div 5 = 4 \\ x = 4 - 1 = 3 \\ enjoy \: it
