What is the additive inverse of 1 half?
Since subtraction is the inverse function of addition, the additive inverse of one half is minus one half.
What are opposites in algebra?
usually this means positive numbers and their negative counterparts. The opposite of a number is its additive inverse. The sum of a number and its opposite is zero. (This is sometimes called the property of opposites, or additive inverse property). Example: -999 + 999 = 0; therefore -999 and 999 are additive inverse (1/3) + (-1/3) = 0; therefore 1/3 and -1/3 are additive inverse 1 + (-1) = 0; therefore 1 and -1 are additive inverse a + (-a) = 0; therefore a and -a are additive inverse, So, the opposite of -999 is 999; the opposite of 1/3 is -1/3; the opposite of 1 is -1, and the opposite of a is -a.
What is the additive inverse of eighteen?

What is the additive inverse of half?
