Geometric Mean

Geometric Mean The geometric mean between two numbers is the positive square root of their product. For two positive numbers a and b , the geometric mean of a and b is the positive number x in the proportion a x x b . Cross multiplying gives x 2 = ab, so x = ab . Find the geometric mean between each pair of numbers. a. 12 and 3 x = ⎷ ab Definition of geometric mean = ⎷ ??? 12 . 3 a = 12 and b = 3 (2 . 2 . 3) . 3 Factor. = 6 Simplify. The geometric mean between 12 and 3 is 6.b. 8 and 4 x = ab Definition of geometric mean = ⎷ ?? 8 . 4 a = 8 and b = 4 (2 . 4) . 4 Factor. = ⎷ ??? 16 . 2 Associative Property = 4 ⎷ ? 2 Simplify.

The geometric mean between 8 and 4

is 4
