(10 POINTS AND BRAINLIEST FOR BEST)
Use the number line to determine the sum −3+(−7).
____

On the number line, draw "bridges" from -3 to -10. Then when you reach -10 draw a shaded dot on it. You should have 7 bridges as that's how much you moved to the left (how much you subtracted).
-3+-7 = -10
When a question has ( +- ) together that means it's ( - ) and you should go to the left.
