Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To find the value of \( x \) such that the numbers \(-\frac{2}{7}, x, -\frac{2}{7}\) are in geometric progression (G.P.), we can use the property of G.P. that states if three numbers \( a, b, c \) are in G.P., then \( b^2 = a \cdot c \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the terms**: Let \( a = -\frac{2}{7} \), \( b = x \), and \( c = -\frac{2}{7} \). 2. **Apply the G.P. condition**: ...
