Which is an example of the opposite of a sum property?
a.) –17 + 32 = 32 + (–17)
b.) –26 + (4 + 8) = (–26 + 4) + 8
c.) –5(6 + 3) = –5(6) + –5(3)
d.) –(–17 + 5) = 17 + (–5)

The opposite sum of a number refers to the fact that the opposite of a sum of real numbers is equal to the sum of the opposite. Base on that, the answer would be letter D. -(-17+5) = 17+(-5). I hope you are satisfied with my answer and feel free to ask for more
