Question Number 95167 by Rio Michael last updated on 23/May/20

the first term in a geometric series is (((2x + 7))/(2x−5)) and the common ratio is   (((2x−5))/(2x + 7)) find the set of values of x for which all the terms are possible.

$$\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{first}\:\mathrm{term}\:\mathrm{in}\:\mathrm{a}\:\mathrm{geometric}\:\mathrm{series}\:\mathrm{is}\:\frac{\left(\mathrm{2}{x}\:+\:\mathrm{7}\right)}{\mathrm{2}{x}−\mathrm{5}}\:\mathrm{and}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{common}\:\mathrm{ratio}\:\mathrm{is} \\ $$$$\:\frac{\left(\mathrm{2}{x}−\mathrm{5}\right)}{\mathrm{2}{x}\:+\:\mathrm{7}}\:\mathrm{find}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{set}\:\mathrm{of}\:\mathrm{values}\:\mathrm{of}\:{x}\:\mathrm{for}\:\mathrm{which}\:\mathrm{all}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{terms}\:\mathrm{are}\:\mathrm{possible}. \\ $$

(1) x ≠ (5/2) ∧ x ≠ −(7/2)

$$\left(\mathrm{1}\right)\:\mathrm{x}\:\neq\:\frac{\mathrm{5}}{\mathrm{2}}\:\wedge\:\mathrm{x}\:\neq\:−\frac{\mathrm{7}}{\mathrm{2}}\: \\ $$
