In order to evaluate the expression (-7) + 8^2/8, we need to follow the order of operations (also known as PEMDAS), which states that we start with parentheses, then exponents, then multiplication and division (from left to right), and finally addition and subtraction (from left to right).
First, let's evaluate the exponent 8^2. This means we multiply 8 by itself: 8^2 = 8 * 8 = 64.
Next, we divide 64 by 8: 64/8 = 8.
Finally, we add -7 to 8: -7 + 8 = 1.
Therefore, (-7) + 8^2/8 = 1.
