What is the additive inverse of 9.1?

We are talking group theory here. A group with addition has an additive inverse. A group with multiplication has a multiplicative inverse. The additive inverse of a number x is a y with x + y = 0. The additive inverse of x is written -x. Hence, the additive inverse of 9.1 equals -9.1. The reason that this question can arise is that beyond groups, there are rings and fields. Rings and fields have, besides addition, also multiplication. An element can have an additive inverse and a multiplicative inverse at the same time.


Why does every rational number have a additive inverse?

What food group does baking powder come in?

Baking Powder would be more of an additive than a food group. If a base component if Baking Powder is Corn Flour, and then Cream of Tartar - one could say it is more in the grain group. (Cream of Tartar would be a byproduct of wide fermintation, but the tartar itself is nothing more than an additive at that point, so it can't live in the fruits group... So- Baking Powder, as an additive, could be considered a cousin of the grains group.
