Zero does not have an opposite
* * * * *
While it is true that zero has no multiplicative opposite (or inverse), it certainly has an additive inverse, and that is also zero, since 0 + 0 = 0
equidistant from zero on a standard number line
Opposite of fractions is called reciprocal.
still zero
No. A negative number is a number below zero, not zero itself.The number zero is neither negative nor positive.
In number Systems , the opposite of the number can be represented by changing and reversing the sign of the number.-2 is the number is the opposite of the number 2.
A number and its opposite,which add to zero.
The opposite of zero is zero itself. This is because zero is a unique number that represents the absence of value, and when you consider its opposite, it remains unchanged. Therefore, the statement holds true: the opposite of zero is always zero.
The additive opposite is itself and its multiplicative opposite is not defined.
Zero can be expressed as the sum of any two opposite mixed number.
By numbers at the same distance but on opposite sides of zero.
When x is not zero, it can be (x + 1/x).
The opposite (or inverse) of a number can be defined in a number of different ways. For example, the additive opposite of 4 is -4 but the multiplicative opposite of 4 is 1/4 or 0.25 Since the question concerns the product it would seem more appropriate to use the multiplicative opposite. Then, the product of a number and its opposite will be always 1. Incidentally, the product of a number and its additive opposite will be the negative square of the number. In neither case will it be zero.
The answer depends on what you mean by the "opposite" of a number. A reciprocal is one type of opposite: it is the multiplicative opposite.
Two numbers that are the same distance from zero on the number line but are on opposite sides of zero are opposite numbers, or opposites. The opposite of a number is called its additive inverse. The opposite of 78 is -78.
The answer depends on what you mean by the "opposite" of a number. A reciprocal is one type of opposite: it is the multiplicative opposite.
A positive number is any number above zero. A negative number is any number below zero. Zero is not a positive or a negative number. A number's opposite is just the negative. For example: 8's opposite is -8 (negative 8). Hope this helped!
