-1 is the additive inverse of 1.
Since subtraction is the inverse function of addition, the additive inverse of one half is minus one half.
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.
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.
-1/2
The additive inverse of x is -(x), so the additive inverse of -45 is -(-45), or 45.
The additive inverse means what undoes adding. The additive inverse of +1 is -1.
1
The greatest negative integer is -1. The additive inverse of a number is the value that, when added to the original number, results in zero. Therefore, the additive inverse of -1 is +1.
The additive inverse of a number is what you would add to that number to get zero. For 3, the additive inverse is -3. The multiplicative inverse is what you would multiply by to get one; for 3, the multiplicative inverse is ( \frac{1}{3} ). Thus, the additive inverse of 3 is -3, and the multiplicative inverse is ( \frac{1}{3} ).
Find the additive inverse (opposite) of: 18/23
-1/32
Every integer has its own additive inverse, which is simply the integer multiplied by -1. For example, the additive inverse of 5 is -5, and the additive inverse of -3 is 3. Therefore, all integers, including zero, have their own additive inverses. In summary, any integer ( x ) has an additive inverse of ( -x ).
-1
Since subtraction is the inverse function of addition, the additive inverse of one half is minus one half.
The additive inverse of a number a is the number -a because a + (-a) = 0. For 5.42, the additive inverse is -5.42 because 5.42 + (-5.42) = 0. The multiplicative inverse of a number a is the number 1/a because a(1/a) = 1. For 5.42, the multiplicative inverse is 1/5.42 = 0.1845.
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.
The multiplicative inverse of a non-zero element, x, in a set, is an element, y, from the set such that x*y = y*x equals the multiplicative identity. The latter is usually denoted by 1 or I and the inverse of x is usually denoted by x-1 or 1/x. y need not be different from x. For example, the multiplicative inverse of 1 is 1, that of -1 is -1.The additive inverse of an element, p, in a set, is an element, q, from the set such that p+q = q+p equals the additive identity. The latter is usually denoted by 0 and the additive inverse of p is denoted by -p.
