Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine the value of \( x \) such that the numbers \(-\frac{2}{7}, x, -\frac{2}{7}\) are in geometric progression (G.P.), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the condition for G.P. For three numbers \( a, b, c \) to be in G.P., the following condition must hold: \[ b^2 = ac \] In our case, the numbers are \( a = -\frac{2}{7} \), \( b = x \), and \( c = -\frac{2}{7} \). ...
