Find the harmonic mean of $$$2$$$, $$$19$$$.
Solution
The harmonic mean of data is given by the formula $$$H = \frac{n}{\sum_{i=1}^{n} \frac{1}{x_{i}}}$$$, where $$$n$$$ is the number of values and $$$x_i, i=\overline{1..n}$$$ are the values themselves.
Since we have $$$2$$$ points, $$$n = 2$$$.
The sum of the reciprocals of the values is $$$\frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{19} = \frac{21}{38}$$$.
Therefore, the harmonic mean is $$$H = \frac{2}{\frac{21}{38}} = \frac{76}{21}$$$.
Answer
The harmonic mean is $$$\frac{76}{21}\approx 3.619047619047619$$$A.
