Answer:

D. 11

Step-by-step explanation:

The bars around the expression represent absolute value. Absolute value is the distance between a number and zero. Since a distance is always positive the absolute value of a number is that number but positive.

So, to solve this expression, first, subtract 8 from -3, -3-8 equals -11. The absolute value of -11 is 11.
