As far as positive numbers are concerned, the additive inverse of a positive number is a negative number with the same magnitude (i.e. the additive inverse of 5 is -5). It would be wrong to simply say that "negative" and "additive inverse" are correct, because the additive inverse of a negative number is a positive number.
The additive inverse of EVERY positive rational number is a negative number.
Additive Inverse would be the number that when added to a given number creates a total of zero. The additive inverse for any negative number would be the positive counterpart. The additive inverse of -5 is 5. The additive inverse of -2 is 2, since -2 + 2 = 0.
It is the mixed number with its sign changed - from positive to negative or negative to positive
No. The additive inverse of zero or a negative rational number is not negative.

This number is also known as the opposite (number), sign change, and negation. For a real number, it reverses its sign: the opposite to a positive number is negative, and the opposite to a negative number is positive. Zero is the additive inverse of itself.
In mathematics, the additive inverse of a number a is the number that, when added to a, yields zero. This number is also known as the opposite. For a real number, it reverses its sign: the opposite to a positive number is negative, and the opposite to a negative number is positive.
For each positive number, there is a negative number that is its opposite. We write the opposite of a positive number with a negative or minus sign in front.The opposite of a number is also called its additive inverse.For example, 5 is the additive inverse of -5 and -5 is the additive inverse of 5.
No. The additive inverse of zero or a negative rational number is not negative.
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).
negative of a number gives its additive inverse
The additive inverse of any number x is the number that, when added to x, will give an answer of 0. So for any positive number, the additive inverse is the same number, but negative, and vice versa. So, the additive inverse of -1.4 is 1.4 since -1.4 + 1.4 = 0.
