These two numbers are:* At opposite sides of the number zero, and* At the same distance from the number zero.
Zero can be expressed as the sum of any two opposite mixed number.
When x is not zero, it can be (x + 1/x).
By numbers at the same distance but on opposite sides of 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.

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
A number and its opposite,which add to 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.
When x is not zero, it can be (x + 1/x).
By numbers at the same distance but on opposite sides of zero.
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.

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.
Depends on the lines. Anywhere from zero to infinitely many. If they are straight lines, then the answer is zero, one or infinity.
