Answer:

D.-30+(-70)+(-40)

Explanation:

Given expression,

-30+(-40)+(-70)

= -30-40-70

= - 140

In option A,

30+40+70 = 140 ≠ -140,

In option B,

-30-(40-70) = -30 - (-30) = -30 + 30 = 0 ≠ -140,

In option C,

-(30-40)+(-70) = -(-10) - 70 =10 - 70 = -60 ≠ -140,

In option D,

-30+(-70)+(-40) = -30-70-40 = -140
