Question

8y + 2 = -30
follow pemdas to map out the steps below.
the next thing that happened is

y ×8 8y ?

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze the equation

We have the equation \(8y + 2=-30\). Looking at the flow from \(8y\), we need to see what operation is done next to get to the next term in the equation.

Step2: Determine the operation

In the equation \(8y+2 = - 30\), after \(8y\), we add 2. So the operation after \(8y\) is \(+2\), and the result of \(8y + 2\) is \(-30\) (from the equation), but in terms of the flow, the next operation is addition of 2, so the next box after \(8y\) (from the operation) would be \(8y + 2\), and from the equation we know \(8y+2=-30\), but the question is about the operation from \(8y\) to the next step. So the operation is \(+2\), and the next expression is \(8y + 2\) (which equals \(-30\) in the equation). But focusing on the flow: \(y\times8 = 8y\), then \(8y+2\) (since the equation is \(8y + 2=-30\)). So the operation is \(+2\), and the next box (the result of \(8y+2\)) is \(-30\) (from the equation), but the operation itself is \(+2\).

Answer:

The operation after \(8y\) is \(+2\), and the next expression (the box) is \(8y + 2\) (which is equal to \(-30\) from the equation). So the operation is \(+2\), and the next box value (from the equation) is \(-30\), but the operation step is adding 2. So the next thing that happened is adding 2, so the operation is \(+2\) and the result is \(8y + 2=-30\), but in the flow, the operation from \(8y\) is \(+2\) to get \(8y + 2\).
