Question

Transcribed Image Text:**Question:**
What is the expansion of the series \(\sum_{n=1}^{4} 3^{n+1}\)?
**Options:**
1. \(9 + 27 + 81 + 243\)
2. \(9 + 12 + 15 + 18\)
3. \(3 + 9 + 27 + 81\)
4. \(3 + 6 + 9 + 12\)
**Explanation:**
To find the expansion of the series \(\sum_{n=1}^{4} 3^{n+1}\), evaluate each term of the series as follows:
- For \(n = 1\): \(3^{1+1} = 3^2 = 9\)
- For \(n = 2\): \(3^{2+1} = 3^3 = 27\)
- For \(n = 3\): \(3^{3+1} = 3^4 = 81\)
- For \(n = 4\): \(3^{4+1} = 3^5 = 243\)
Thus, the series expands to \(9 + 27 + 81 + 243\), corresponding to option 1.
