1. **State the problem:** We need to find all points on the number line that are exactly 7 units away from point P, which is located at $-2$.
2. **Formula used:** The distance between two points $x$ and $a$ on a number line is given by the absolute value $|x - a|$.
3. **Apply the formula:** We want points $x$ such that
$$|x - (-2)| = 7$$
which simplifies to
$$|x + 2| = 7$$
4. **Solve the absolute value equation:** This gives two cases:
- Case 1: $x + 2 = 7$
$$x = 7 - 2 = 5$$
- Case 2: $x + 2 = -7$
$$x = -7 - 2 = -9$$
5. **Check which points correspond to these values:**
- $x = 5$ corresponds to point D.
- $x = -9$ is not one of the labeled points on the number line.
6. **Final answer:** The point that is 7 units from P is point D at $5$.
**Answer:** Point D
