Answer

Converges to $e^7$

Work Step by Step

Consider $\lim\limits_{n \to \infty} a_n= \lim\limits_{n \to \infty} (1+\dfrac{7}{n})^{n}$ Since, $\lim\limits_{n \to \infty} (1+\dfrac{x}{n})^{n}=e^x$ when $x \gt 0$ So, $\lim\limits_{n \to \infty} a_n= \lim\limits_{n \to \infty} (1+\dfrac{7}{n})^{n}=e^7$ Hence, $\lim\limits_{n \to \infty} a_n=e^7 $ and {$a_n$} is convergent and converges to $e^7$
