Your Input

Find the geometric mean of $$$16$$$, $$$28$$$.

Solution

The geometric mean of data is given by the formula $$$\left(\prod_{i=1}^{n} x_{i}\right)^{\frac{1}{n}}$$$, where $$$n$$$ is the number of values and $$$x_i, i=\overline{1..n}$$$ are the values themselves.

Since we have $$$2$$$ points, $$$n = 2$$$.

The product of the values is $$$\left(16\right)\cdot \left(28\right) = 448$$$.

Therefore, the geometric mean is $$$\sqrt{448} = 8 \sqrt{7}$$$.

Answer

The geometric mean is $$$8 \sqrt{7}\approx 21.166010488516725$$$A.
