What is an inverse operation?

Answer 1

An inverse operation is an operation that reverses the effect of the original operation. For example, addition and subtraction are inverse operations. 2 add 5 is 7, subtract 5 is 2. The subtraction of 5 reversed the effect of adding 5. Multiplication and division are also inverse operations.

Two functions f and g are inverse if f(g(x)) = g(f(x)) = x.

Answer 2

An inverse operation reverses the effect of a given operation. For example, addition and subtraction are inverse operations, as are multiplication and division. Applying the inverse operation "undoes" the original operation and returns you to the original value.

Answer 3

look at mathfun.com and look at inverse operation

In math the inverse is the opposite directions as in PEMDAS you would go S-subtraction, A-addition, D-division, M-multiplication,E-exponents, P-parntheses.

Answer 4

Start with a value and apply one opration to it to change it to another value. Then the inverse operation is the one that changes the second value back to the first value in all cases where the first operation is defined.

So for example if the first operation were to double the number, the inverse would be halve the number.

If the first operation were to add 3, the inverse would be to subtract 3.

Answer 5

it is something that does the opposite of something else. for example multiplication and division are inverse operations because they do the opposite of each other.

Answer 6

it means the other way round, for example 1+5=6 and 5+1=6 also 6-5=1 and 6-1=5 that is called a pack of four

Answer 7

an operation that reverses the effect of the equation

Answer 8

is the opposite of the other thing

ex:+=-
