Answer:

202.8

Step-by-step explanation:

The geometric mean of 2 numbers a and b is

[tex]\sqrt{ab}[/tex]

Here a = 30 and mean = 78, thus

[tex]\sqrt{30b}[/tex] = 78

To clear the radical square both sides

([tex]\sqrt{30b}[/tex] )² = 78², that is

30b = 6084 ( divide both sides by 30 )

b = [tex]\frac{6084}{30}[/tex] = 202.8
