C
Explanation :
First, calculate each term with z = .1515:- z4=.15154=.037875\frac{z}{4} = \frac{.1515}{4} = .0378754z=4.1515=.037875 - z4=(.1515)4=.000053034z^{4} = (.1515)^{4} = .000053034z4=(.1515)4=.000053034 - 79=.777777...\frac{7}{9} = .777777...97=.777777... - −.25z2=−.25(.1515)2=−.25(.02295225)=−.005738-.25z^{2} = -.25(.1515)^{2} = -.25(.02295225) = -.005738.25z2=.25(.1515)2=.25(.02295225)=.005738 - 23=.666666...\frac{2}{3} = .666666...32=.666666... Adding these together:.037875 + .000053034 + .777777 - .005738 + .666666 = 1.476633034Rounded to two decimal places, the final result is 1.48.
