Answer:

0-7+ (19 + 5) = (-7 + 19) + 5

Step-by-step explanation

The associative property of addition states that how number of groups won't change the answer.

EX: 2 + (2 + 3) = (2 + 2) +3

In this example, both answers are equal to 7.

In the given problem, '0-7+ (19 + 5) = (-7 + 19) + 5' is the best choice because the order of the parenthesis is being changed, yet the answer is still the same.

I hope that this answers your question!
