To solve the equation log81 s = 1/2 and find the value of s, we need to rewrite the equation in exponential form.
In exponential form, the equation would be: 81^s = √(81)
Since √(81) is equal to 9, the equation becomes: 81^s = 9
We can rewrite 9 as 3^2: 81^s = 3^2
Comparing the bases, we can conclude that s = 2.
Therefore, the value of s is 2.

To find the area of triangle ΔDEF with coordinates D(5,-1), E(1,-4), and F(-5, 4), we can use the formula for the area of a triangle given three vertices:
Area = 1/2 * |x1(y2 - y3) + x2(y3 - y1) + x3(y1 - y2)|
Substituting the coordinates of the vertices into the formula:
Area = 1/2 * |5(-4 - 4) + 1(4 - (-1)) + (-5)((-1) - (-4))|
Simplifying:
Area = 1/2 * |-20 + 5 + 12|
Area = 1/2 * |-3|
Area = 1.5 square units
Therefore, the area of triangle ΔDEF is 1.5 square units.
Area = 1/2 * |x1(y2 - y3) + x2(y3 - y1) + x3(y1 - y2)|
Substituting the coordinates of the vertices into the formula:
Area = 1/2 * |5(-4 - 4) + 1(4 - (-1)) + (-5)((-1) - (-4))|
Simplifying:
Area = 1/2 * |-20 + 5 + 12|
Area = 1/2 * |-3|
Area = 1.5 square units
Therefore, the area of triangle ΔDEF is 1.5 square units.

Apologies for the error. Let's calculate the area of the triangle again:
Using the formula for the area of a triangle given three vertices:
Area = 1/2 * |x1(y2 - y3) + x2(y3 - y1) + x3(y1 - y2)|
Substituting the coordinates of the vertices: D(5,-1), E(1,-4), and F(-5, 4):
Area = 1/2 * |5(-4 - 4) + 1(4 - (-1)) + (-5)((-1) - (-4))|
Simplifying:
Area = 1/2 * |-40 + 5 + 18|
Area = 1/2 * |-17|
Area = 8.5 square units
Therefore, the area of triangle ΔDEF is 8.5 square units.
Out of the given options, the closest one is 9.0 square units.
