The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the modulus of the difference between two numbers \( x \) and \( y \) given that their Harmonic Mean (H.M.) is 4 and they satisfy the relation \( 2A + G^2 = 27 \), where \( A \) is the Arithmetic Mean (A.M.) and \( G \) is the Geometric Mean (G.M.). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding H.M.**: The formula for the Harmonic Mean of two numbers \( x \) and \( y \) is given by: \[ H.M. = \frac{2xy}{x+y} \] Given that \( H.M. = 4 \), we can set up the equation: \[ \frac{2xy}{x+y} = 4 \] 2. **Cross-multiplying**: Cross-multiplying gives us: \[ 2xy = 4(x+y) \] Simplifying this, we have: \[ 2xy = 4x + 4y \] Dividing through by 2: \[ xy = 2x + 2y \quad \text{(1)} \] 3. **Understanding A.M. and G.M.**: The Arithmetic Mean \( A \) and Geometric Mean \( G \) are given by: \[ A = \frac{x+y}{2} \quad \text{and} \quad G = \sqrt{xy} \] Therefore, we can express \( A \) and \( G^2 \): \[ G^2 = xy \] 4. **Substituting into the given relation**: We know from the problem that: \[ 2A + G^2 = 27 \] Substituting \( A \) and \( G^2 \): \[ 2\left(\frac{x+y}{2}\right) + xy = 27 \] This simplifies to: \[ x + y + xy = 27 \quad \text{(2)} \] 5. **Using equations (1) and (2)**: From equation (1), we have \( xy = 2x + 2y \). We can substitute this into equation (2): \[ x + y + (2x + 2y) = 27 \] Simplifying gives: \[ 3x + 3y = 27 \] Dividing through by 3: \[ x + y = 9 \quad \text{(3)} \] 6. **Finding \( xy \)**: Now substituting \( x + y = 9 \) back into equation (1): \[ xy = 2(x + y) = 2 \times 9 = 18 \quad \text{(4)} \] 7. **Forming a quadratic equation**: We now have: \[ x + y = 9 \quad \text{and} \quad xy = 18 \] The numbers \( x \) and \( y \) are the roots of the quadratic equation: \[ t^2 - (x+y)t + xy = 0 \] Substituting the values: \[ t^2 - 9t + 18 = 0 \] 8. **Solving the quadratic equation**: Using the quadratic formula: \[ t = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a} = \frac{9 \pm \sqrt{9^2 - 4 \cdot 1 \cdot 18}}{2 \cdot 1} \] \[ t = \frac{9 \pm \sqrt{81 - 72}}{2} = \frac{9 \pm \sqrt{9}}{2} = \frac{9 \pm 3}{2} \] This gives us: \[ t = \frac{12}{2} = 6 \quad \text{or} \quad t = \frac{6}{2} = 3 \] Thus, \( x = 6 \) and \( y = 3 \) (or vice versa). 9. **Finding the modulus of the difference**: The modulus of the difference is: \[ |x - y| = |6 - 3| = 3 \] ### Final Answer: The modulus of the difference of the two numbers is \( \boxed{3} \).
