Answer

$a) 2.7^{3.1}\approx 21.738 \\ b) 2.71^{3.14} \approx 22.884 \\ c) 2.718^{3.141} \approx 23.119 \\d) e^{\pi} \approx 23.141$

Work Step by Step

Use a calculator to compute the given expression and then we round-off the answer to three decimal places. $a) 2.7^{3.1}\approx 21.738 \\ b) 2.71^{3.14} \approx 22.884 \\ c) 2.718^{3.141} \approx 23.119 \\d) e^{\pi} \approx 23.141$
