Answer:

0

Explanation:

Follow the signs rule:

IF:

There is a + sign, and the number directly next is +, add

There is a + sign, and the number directly next is -, subtract

There is a - sign, and the number directly next is +, subtract

There is a - sign, and the number directly next is -, add

In this case, there is a positive & a negative sign, so the sign is negative. Subtract:

7 + (-7) = 7 - 7 = 0

0 is your answer.
