Find three geometric means between 2 and 162.

OpenStudy (alekos):

there's only one geometric mean for the numbers 2 and 162 That's sqrt(2 x 162) = 18

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The first geometric mean is 18. The second is sqrt(2 x 18) = 6. The third is sqrt(2 x 6) = 2sqrt(3)

OpenStudy (alekos):

just looking at your question more closely and my answer was not completely correct the 3 geom. means are 6, 18 and 54 (not 2sqrt3 as cebroski has suggested) last one is sqrt(18x162)
