The additive inverse is just another way of saying the "opposite" of an integer*. The way to find the additive inverse of an integer is by looking at the negative sign (-) or the positive sign (+) or no sign.
Example 1
a. The opposite of 5 is -5
b. The opposite of -6 is 6
c. The opposite of -|-12| is -12
*An integer is any whole number*
.:Letter "c" is just an example of absolute value. It has nothing to do with the procedure of finding the additive inverse:.

What is the additive inverse of 18 23-?
Find the additive inverse (opposite) of: 18/23
Find the additive inverse of 1.4?
-1.4 Additive inverse is a fancy way of saying the opposite.
Find the additive inverse of 9?
9
What is the additive inverse of 5 number?
To find the additive inverse of ANY number, add a minus sign. (If the number already has a minus sign, take the minus sign away to get the additive inverse.)
What is the additive inverse of .5?
The additive inverse for a number is its negative value. The sum of an integer and its additive inverse is zero. For the example (5), the additive inverse would be (-5).
What is the inverse for numbers under addition?
A number and its additive inverse add up to zero. If a number has no sign, add a "-" in front of it to get its additive inverse. The additive inverse of 5 is -5. The additive inverse of x is -x. If a number has a minus sign, take it away to get its additive inverse. The additive inverse of -10 is 10. The additive inverse of -y is y.
What is the additive inverse of the additive inverse of -129?
-129
What is additive inverse of -2x?
What is additive inverse
What is the additive inverse of eighteen?
The additive inverse of 18 is -18. The additive inverse of any number is the opposite of that number, such that the sum of the original number and the additive inverse is zero.
What is the additive inverse of 6 plus 4i?
The additive inverse of 6+4i is -6-4i since their sum is 0. It is analogous to real numbers where the additive inverse of 6 is -6 since 6+-6 =6-6=0 In the case of complex numbers, we add them by adding the real parts and then adding the imaginary parts. So to find the complex additive inverse of a+bi, we find the inverse of a which is -a and of bi which is -bi and so the additive inverse is -a-bi
What additive inverse of-45?
The additive inverse of x is -(x), so the additive inverse of -45 is -(-45), or 45.
