-$- \frac { x - 7 } { x + 10 }$
A) $\frac { - ( x - 7 ) } { x - 10 } , \frac { - x + 7 } { x + 10 } , \frac { x - 7 } { - ( x - 10 ) } , \frac { x - 7 } { - x - 10 }$
B) $\frac { - ( x + 7 ) } { x + 10 } , \frac { - x + 7 } { x + 10 } , \frac { x + 7 } { - ( x + 10 ) } , \frac { x - 7 } { - x - 10 }$
C) $\frac { - ( x - 7 ) } { x + 10 } , \frac { - x + 7 } { x + 10 } , \frac { x - 7 } { - ( x + 10 ) } , \frac { x - 7 } { - x - 10 }$
D) $\frac { - ( x - 7 ) } { x + 10 } , \frac { - x + 7 } { x - 10 } , \frac { x - 7 } { - ( x - 10 ) } , \frac { x - 7 } { - x - 10 }$
