Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]-8 + d[/tex]

Required

Examine Neetu's statement

Neetu's statement is sometimes true.

First,

Let d = 5

[tex]-8 + d[/tex] becomes

[tex]-8 + 5[/tex]

[tex]-3[/tex]

In this case, Neetu's statement is incorrect

However,

Let d = 10

[tex]-8 + d[/tex] becomes

[tex]-8 + 10[/tex]

[tex]2[/tex]

In this case, Neetu's statement is correct.

So, we can conclude that;

Neetu's statement is sometimes true
