What is the additive inverse of 9.1?
We are talking group theory here. A group with addition has an additive inverse. A group with multiplication has a multiplicative inverse. The additive inverse of a number x is a y with x + y = 0. The additive inverse of x is written -x. Hence, the additive inverse of 9.1 equals -9.1. The reason that this question can arise is that beyond groups, there are rings and fields. Rings and fields have, besides addition, also multiplication. An element can have an additive inverse and a multiplicative inverse at the same time.
Why does every rational number have a additive inverse?
The rational numbers form an algebraic structure with respect to addition and this structure is called a group. And it is the property of a group that every element in it has an additive inverse.
What are additive adverse property?
The additive inverse means what undoes adding. The additive inverse of +1 is -1.
What is the additive inverses of -4?
The additive inverse is +4
What is additive inverse and a additive identity?
additive inverse is when in an equation there is a plus zero. you automatically know that anything plus 0 is still that number, so that is additive identity.
