-1.4 Additive inverse is a fancy way of saying the opposite.
To find the additive inverse of ANY number, add a minus sign. (If the number already has a minus sign, take the minus sign away to get the additive inverse.)
A number and its additive inverse add up to zero. If a number has no sign, add a "-" in front of it to get its additive inverse. The additive inverse of 5 is -5. The additive inverse of x is -x. If a number has a minus sign, take it away to get its additive inverse. The additive inverse of -10 is 10. The additive inverse of -y is y.
Additive inverse: change all signs. Multiplicative inverse: flip it over.

To find the additive inverse of ANY number, add a minus sign. (If the number already has a minus sign, take the minus sign away to get the additive inverse.)
The additive inverse for a number is its negative value. The sum of an integer and its additive inverse is zero. For the example (5), the additive inverse would be (-5).
A number and its additive inverse add up to zero. If a number has no sign, add a "-" in front of it to get its additive inverse. The additive inverse of 5 is -5. The additive inverse of x is -x. If a number has a minus sign, take it away to get its additive inverse. The additive inverse of -10 is 10. The additive inverse of -y is y.

The additive inverse of 6+4i is -6-4i since their sum is 0. It is analogous to real numbers where the additive inverse of 6 is -6 since 6+-6 =6-6=0 In the case of complex numbers, we add them by adding the real parts and then adding the imaginary parts. So to find the complex additive inverse of a+bi, we find the inverse of a which is -a and of bi which is -bi and so the additive inverse is -a-bi
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.
Change its sign.
The additive inverse of x is -(x), so the additive inverse of -45 is -(-45), or 45.
