Answer:
(b) 1.95
Step-by-step explanation:
One of the easiest ways to evaluate an arithmetic expression of almost any kind is to type it into an on-line calculator. Many times, typing it into a search box is equivalent.
<h3>Application</h3>See the attachment for the search box input (at top) and the result. This calculator has the benefit that it <em>always follows the Order of Operations</em> when evaluating an expression. (Not all calculators do.)
ln(7) ≈ 1.95

<em>Additional comment</em>
If your math course is asking you to evaluate such expressions, you have probably been provided a calculator to use, or given the requirements for a calculator suitable for use in the course.
There are some very nice calculator apps for phone and tablet. Many phones and tablets already come with built-in calculator apps. For the purpose here, you need a "scientific" or "graphing" calculator. A 4-function calculator will not do.
As with any tool, it is always a good idea to read the manual for your calculator and work through any example problems.

Years ago, handheld calculators were not available, and most desktop calculators were only capable of the basic four arithmetic functions. Finding a logarithm required use of a table of logarithms. Such tables were published in mathematical handbooks, and extracts of those often appeared as appendices in math textbooks used in school.
For the given geometric series the value of the common ratio(r) is 3, while the value of a₁ is 1.
<h3>What is geometric series?</h3>A series of numbers whose any two consecutive numbers are always in a common ratio of that series.
Given to us
Series, 1 3 9 27 81
To find the value of the common ratio(r), we will simply find the ratio of any two consecutive numbers, therefore,
As we can see the common ratio of the given series is 3, therefore, every next number will be thrice the number before.
We need to find the value of a₁ for the given series, and as we know that a₁ is the first number of the series with which the series is starting, therefore,
a₁ = 1
Hence, for the given geometric series the value of the common ratio(r) is 3, while the value of a₁ is 1.
