Because in mathematics, a geometric progression, also known as a geometric sequence, is a sequence of non-zero numbers where each term after the first is found by multiplying the previous one by a fixed, non-zero number called the common ratio.
In order to answer the question, it's absolutely essential to have
enough of a description of the object to know which of its parts
'X', 'Y', and 'Z' are, and what other parts it may have.
An ideal way to accomplish this would have been for you to include the
picture that accompanies the question, wherever you copied it from.

Answer:
x = 2.5 or -0.8
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we are to use completing the square method to solve for the values of x
Firstly, we divide through by 4
= x^2 -7/4x -2 = 0
Now, we move the two term to the right hand side
x^2 -7/4x = 2
Now, we divide the coefficient of x by 2 and square it;
That would be;
(-7/4 * 1/2)^2 = 49/64
we now add this value to both sides of the equation
x^2 -7/4x + 49/64 = 2 + 49/64
The right hand side can be rewritten as;
(x-7/8)^2 = 177/64
taking the square root of both sides
x-7/8 = √(177/64)
x = 7/8 ± √(177/64)
x = 7/8 + √(177/74) or 7/8 - √(177/64)
= x = 2.53802 or -0.788017
Which to the nearest tenth is
x = 2.5 or -0.8
