Verified Answer
The answer is -7.
1Step 1: Identify the numbers
The numbers given are -7 and 0.
2Step 2: Understand the additive identity property
The additive identity property states that any number plus zero is the same original number. It can be formulated as: \( n + 0 = n \), where \( n \) represents any number.
