Answer:

B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: expressions

To find: the expression whose value is closest to e

Solution:

Value of e is 2.718

\left ( 1+\frac{1}{19} \right )^{19}=\left ( \frac{20}{19} \right )^{19}=2.65\\\left ( 1+\frac{1}{22} \right )^{22}=\left ( \frac{23}{22} \right )^{22}=2.659\\\left ( 1+\frac{1}{20} \right )^{20}=\left ( \frac{21}{20} \right )^{20}=2.653\\\left ( 1+\frac{1}{21} \right )^{21}=\left ( \frac{22}{21} \right )^{21}=2.656

Therefore, value 2.659 is closest to the value of e.

So, option B. is correct.

Given 3 sides of a triangle - how to tell it right, acute, or obtuse 8,11, 16
user100 [1]
Using Pythagorean theorem, we can justify our answer.
if c^2 = a^2 + b^2 then triangle is right one,
if c^2 > a^2 + b^2 then triangle is obtuse and
if c^2 < a^2 + b^2 then triangle is acute triangle.

Here a=8, b=11 and c=16
Put these values in the equation
16^2 = 8 ^2 + 11^2
256 = 64 +121
256> 185
So here c^2 > a^2 + b^2  Which means triangle is obtuse triangle.

Answer: Obtuse Triangle
