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
[tex]\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[/tex]
Therefore, value 2.659 is closest to the value of e.
So, option B. is correct.
