When resistors are connected in series, their resistance values add up. Thus, the equivalent resistance (R_eq) of the combination is simply the sum of the resistance of the three resistors:
R_eq = R_1 + R_2 + R_3
where R_1, R_2, and R_3 are the resistances of each of the three resistors.
Substituting the given values, we get:
R_eq = 1 ohm + 2 ohm + 4 ohm
R_eq = 7 ohm
Therefore, the equivalent resistance of the combination is 7 ohm.
