Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(\log _e\left(\frac{3}{2}\right)\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given, \(\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{2 \cdot 2^2}+\frac{1}{3 \cdot 2^3}-\frac{1}{4 \cdot 2^4}+\ldots\) On Comparing with \(\log _e(1+x)=x-\frac{x^2}{2}+\frac{x^3}{3}-\frac{x^4}{4}+\ldots \infty\) Put \(x=\frac{1}{2}\) on both sides, we get…
