Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\frac{1}{3}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\mathrm{S}_{\mathrm{n}}=1+3 \mathrm{x}+9 \mathrm{x}^2+27 \mathrm{x}^3+\ldots \mathrm{n}\) terms \[ \begin{aligned} & \lim _{n \rightarrow \infty} S_n=1+3 x+9 x^2+27 x^3+\ldots \\ & \Rightarrow \lim _{n \rightarrow \infty} S_n=(1-3 x)^{-1}=\frac{1}{1-3 x} \end{aligned} \] So,…
