The problem asks you to use the **additive inverse property** to fill in the blank. The **additive inverse** of a number is the number that, when added to the original number, gives a sum of zero. 

In this case, the equation is:
\[
\_\_ + (-7) = 0
\]

To solve this, we need to find the additive inverse of \(-7\). The additive inverse of \(-7\) is \(+7\), because:
\[
7 + (-7) = 0
\]

Thus, the blank should be filled with **7**.

Let me know if you want more details or have any questions! Here are five related questions to expand your understanding:

1. What is the additive inverse of 5?
2. How would you solve \( \_\_ + (-10) = 0 \) using the additive inverse property?
3. What is the additive inverse of a positive number?
4. How can you verify if your solution is correct using addition?
5. What role does the zero play in the additive inverse property?

**Tip**: The additive inverse of any number \(x\) is simply \(-x\), and vice versa!

Fill in the blank by using the additive inverse property: _ + (-7) = 0.
