Answer: The correct option is

(7) Identity - addition.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to select the property that allows the left member of the equation to be changed to the right member.

8 + 0 = 8.

We now that

if a is a real number, then the equation a + 0 = a is the additive identity.

Putting a = 8, we get


8+0=8.

Thus, the required property is additive identity.

Option (7) is CORRECT.
