Answer:

D: -(-7) = 7 is the true statement!

Explanation:

Well we know a negative multiplied by a negative makes a positive!

So for A: -(-5) = positive 5 which doesn't equal -0

B: -(-3) = positive 3 which doesn't equal -3

C: -(8) = negative 8 which doesn't equal 8

D: -(-7) = positive 7 which does equal 7!
