PEMDAS (order of operations rules) require that we perform operations in a certain order: anything inside parentheses first, followed by any exponentiation, followed by mult. and div., finally followed by addition and subtraction.
Thus, we must evaluate 5+8÷4-1 first, as it's inside parentheses. Focusing on the division first, we get 5+8÷4-1 = 5 + 2 - 1, or 6.
Then we have 5 - [6], which comes out to -1.

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given</u>
<u />
<u>Swap x and y and solve for y</u>
<u />
<u>Final answer</u>
<u />
Keep in mind that we need to swap the variables because a function and its inverse are symmetrical about the line y=x. See the graph below.
Answer:
201
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The expression is equal to 
The area of the scale drawing is 
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its areas is equal to the scale factor squared
let
z------> the scale factor
x------> the area of the actual room
y-----> the area of the scale drawing
so

we have


substitute and solve for y
