Answer:

Explanation:

Formula

Geometric Mean = √(x1*x2)^(1/2)

This is the formula for 2 numbers. You multiply the two givens together and take the square root of the 2 numbers multiplied together. If there were 3 numbers, you would take the cube root.

Givens

x1 = 7

x2 = 20 Put the givens in the formula

Solution

Geometric mean = (7 * 20)^(1/2)

Geometric Mean = (140)^(1/2)

Geometric Mean = 11.83 Rounded.
