Answer: C. 7

Step-by-step explanation

When the exponent of a natural logarithm has an exponent, we can do the following:


\ln(e^7)=7\ln(e)

Additionally, we are given a natural logarithm, and the base for the natural logarithm is the mathematical constant e. When the argument of the logarithm is equal to the base, then it is equal to 1:


7\ln(e)=7\cdot1
=7
