Answer:
(X+9), X-6 and 4 are in GP, then
(X+9)/(X-6) =(X-6)/4
or, 4(X+9) = (X-6)(X-6)
or, X^2 -12X +36 -4X - 36 = 0
or, X(X-16) = 0
X = 0 or 16
hope its help you

If (x+9),(x−6) and 4 are in GP then common ratio will be equal.
⟹ x+9/x−6= x−6/4
⟹(x−6) ² =4(x+9)
⟹x ²−12x+36=4x+36
⟹x(x−16)=0
⟹x=0 or x=16.
