Working out the expression 7(3ˣ) is first to calculate the value of 3ˣ then multiply the answer to 7.
For example, let x = 2
Then 7(3ˣ) = 7(3²) = 7 × 9 = 63
With the same value of x = 2, calculating 21ˣ = 21² = 441, which isn't the same answer with the expression 7(3ˣ)
For starters,

Consider the
th partial sum, denoted by
:

Multiply both sides by
:

Subtract
from this:

Solve for
:


Now as
, the exponential term will converge to 0, since
if
. This leaves us with

Answer:
<u>standard form is 48x^23</u>
About 15 because 9 times 5 = 45 reminder 3 than you add 3 times 5 = 15
