AM-GM-HM Relationship

𝑥 and 𝑦 are the geometric mean and the harmonic mean of any two positive (identical or nonidentical)
integers. Calculate the minimum value of their arithmetic mean in terms of 𝑥 and 𝑦.



HM= $frac {GM^2}{AM}$



AM= $frac {GM^2}{HM}$



So, AM=$frac {x^2}{y}$



My conclusion is that minimum value of AM is $frac{x^2}{y}$.Am I correct?

Yes, given the AM,GM and HM there's no other way to get their relation. So that is the only possible equation to relate the Means.You are correct.
