Adding a negative and a positive number means we subtract the absolute value of the smaller number from the absolute value of the larger number, and then keep the sign of the larger number. In this case, the absolute value of -3 is smaller than the absolute value of 7, so we subtract 3 from 7 and keep the positive sign, giving us 4. Therefore, the correct answer is A) 4.
