Answer:

8

Explanation:

To solve an equation use PEMDAS(parenthesis, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, subtraction)

First solve for the parenthesis.

1+2(2*2)-1 = 1+2(4)-1

Then solve any multiplication/ division in order.

1+2(4)-1= 1+8-1

Then solve any addition/ subtraction in order.

1+8-1= 9-1= 8

The answer to the expression is 8.
