8) The geometric mean is often used in business and economics for finding average rates of
change, average rates of growth, or average ratios. Given n values (all positive), the
geometric mean is the nth root of their product. The average growth factor for money
compounded at annual interest rates of 45%, 30%, 23%, and 37% can be found by
computing the geometric mean of 1.45, 1.3, 1.23, and 1.37. Find that average growth
factor.
A) 0.7941 B) 0.046 C) 1.7822 D) 1.335

Sitten hän lisäsi hiljaa: Luulen että opin hiukan joka päivä —
teidän äidistänne!
*****
Hän meni nummelle sille paikalle missä Samuel Stern oli istunut
äitinsä kanssa.
Mieluummin hän kuunteli joen ääntä! Sillä oli luja tahtonsa, mutta
se ei ollut enää niin kiihkeä. Mitä se keväällä oli sanonut
hillittömyydessään, sen oli se jo unohtanut — — —
21.
Sitten hän jatkoi: — Halusin sanoa teille jotain. Nyt luulen voivani
tehdä sen. Mehän olemme ystävät — eikö niin?
— Oli aika, jolloin olisin tahtonut vihata sinua. Nyt olen ehtinyt
edemmäksi — olen onnellinen siitä, että rakkauteni on niin suuri. En
sano: »Jää luokseni, sillä päivä ehtii ehtooseen, jää luokseni,
valokseni, kun suuri pimeys tulee.» Ei, minä sanon: »Mene! Mene
luotani! Tahdon rukoilla että jotain hyvää tulee osaksesi!»
Hänen äänensä sointi oli käynyt lempeäksi. Thorasta oli, kuin olisi
vuolas virta hellyyttä tulvehtinut häntä vastaan.
Thora oli istunut pää alas painuneena. Nyt loi hän katseensa ylös,
ja se kuvasti tuskaa, hänen puhuessaan värähtelevin äänin:
*****
Vain silloin tällöin täytyi Samuel Sternin sanoa joku sana. Sitten
vallitsi jälleen hiljaisuus.
— Ja entä valkoinen puku, joka sinulla oli ylläsi, kun läksit luotani
— minne se on joutunut? Juuri sellainen puku pitää sinulla olla, kun
tulet omakseni — niin että minä tiedän sinun palanneen!
Samuel Stern kävi rauhattomaksi, sillä Thora oli niin kalpea. Hän
veti varovasti pienen vaipan hänen ympärilleen.
