An inverse operation undoes the effect of another operation. For example, addition is the inverse operation of subtraction, and multiplication is the inverse operation of division. Applying an operation and its inverse leaves you with the original value.
An inverse operation is an operation that "undoes" another operation. For example, addition and subtraction are inverse operations, as are multiplication and division. Using inverse operations allows you to reverse the effects of the original operation.
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.
The inverse operation of addition is subtraction. Subtraction undoes addition by taking away a number from the sum to return to the original value.
To show the inverse operation of Exercise 5, you could demonstrate how to undo the steps of Exercise 5 in reverse order, resulting in the original input. This would help illustrate how the inverse operation undoes the effects of the original operation.
An inverse operation is when you do the opisite in math. For example when you subtract the inverse operation is to add.
Add 24.
nothing (0)
Add 20.
add-63
It is a second operation that "undoes" the first.For example, the inverse of "add 2" is "subtract 2";the inverse of "divide by 7" is "multiply by 7";the inverse of "take the reciprocal" is "take the reciprocal".
An inverse operation undoes the effect of another operation. For example, addition is the inverse operation of subtraction, and multiplication is the inverse operation of division. Applying an operation and its inverse leaves you with the original value.
The inverse operation for subtract 5 is add 5. This is because whatever number you start with, if you first "subtract 5" and then "add 5" or if you first "add 5" and then "subtract 5" you are back to the number you started with.
subtract negative 6 or +6
Using the inverse operation is probably the most clumsy way of obtaining the answer.To add 23 to some known number x, you would be required to find the number y such that subtracting 23 from y (the inverse operation) would result in x. Why on earth would you do that?
You just subtract 23 (do the opposite operation to the same number).
y = n - 8 In this case you start with n and then subtract 8. For the inverse operation you start at the end and replace each operation by its inverse. So "subtract 8" is replaced by "add 8". That is it. n = y + 8
