Eighteen is the Geometric Mean of 12 and what number

18 = sqrt (12 x)
Solve for x.
The answer is an integer, and it isn't 24 (That's the arithmetic mean).

cheese is yellow

what is the meaning of geometric sequence?

how many geometric means are there between 10 and 1280 where the ratio of forst mean is to the last mean is as 1:32

To solve for x, we will use the formula for finding the geometric mean.

The geometric mean between two numbers, a and b, is given by the formula:
Geometric mean = sqrt(a * b)

We are given that the geometric mean between 12 and x is 18, so we can write the equation as:
18 = sqrt(12 * x)

To solve for x, we need to isolate x on one side of the equation. To do that, let's square both sides of the equation:
18^2 = (sqrt(12 * x))^2
324 = 12 * x

Next, divide both sides of the equation by 12:
324/12 = x
27 = x

Therefore, the number that makes 18 the geometric mean between 12 and that number is 27.

To find the number that completes the expression "18 is the geometric mean of 12 and ___," we can use the formula for the geometric mean. The formula states that the geometric mean of two numbers, a and b, is the square root of their product.

In this case, we have 18 as the geometric mean and 12 as one of the numbers. Let's represent the missing number as "x." Using the formula, we can write the equation as:

18 = sqrt(12 * x)

To isolate x, we need to solve for it. We can start by squaring both sides of the equation:

(18)^2 = (sqrt(12 * x))^2

324 = 12 * x

Now, we divide both sides of the equation by 12:

324 / 12 = x

Simplifying the equation, we find:

27 = x

So, the missing number that completes the expression is 27.

Regarding your mention of cheese being yellow, while it is true that many types of cheese have a yellow or yellowish-orange color, this fact is unrelated to the mathematical question and answer above.
